Fee done, terms next for Tomáš Suslov

Spartak Trnava and Hellas Verona have settled on $10.8M. The rest belongs to the player and his agent, and a supporter who has watched one of these before knows not to buy the shirt yet.

Market17 Aug 2026

Terms done: Robert Mak is going

Fee agreed, wages agreed, and Inter Bratislava waiting with a shirt. Nobody at Spartak Trnava is pretending otherwise, and the supporters have stopped asking whether and started asking when.

Market17 Aug 2026

Hilary Gong puts it in writing

“This is not anger. I have thought about it for months, and nothing that has happened lately changed my mind.” The request is on a desk at Spartak Trnava, and it is not being withdrawn.

Transfer targets17 Aug 2026

Door shut on Samuel Mráz

Spartak Trnava asked and Servette said no without discussing a figure. It is the least ambiguous answer in football and the one clubs most often come back to test.

No thanks: Eymard Bationo rejects the move

Spartak Trnava had done everything except persuade the man himself. He stays at DAC Dunajska Streda, and the manager goes back to the drawing board with the money still in the bank.

Market17 Aug 2026

Loïc Bessilé is a Spartak Trnava player

The fee is $260.0K, the contract is signed, and the argument about whether he is worth it can begin. AS Trencin drove a hard bargain; time will say who won it.

Tempers go at Spartak Trnava

Jakub Sylvestr was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Stefan Skrbo signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Stefan Skrbo commits to Spartak Trnava for another 4 years.

Match15 Aug 2026

A bad afternoon for Spartak Trnava against FC Košice

0‑2 to FC Košice, and no complaints worth printing. The performance asked for nothing more than it got.

Player ratings10 Aug 2026

Both of them Philip Elayo Azango's — 8.65

2 goals, and the second was the one that settled it. Marked 8.65, and he could have had a third with better luck at the near post.

Transfer targets10 Aug 2026

Spartak Trnava make their move for Tomáš Suslov

$8.6M on the table at Hellas Verona. The manager wanted him, the board agreed a number, and the only voices still to be heard are the ones at the other club.

Squad10 Aug 2026

A one-man rearguard from Martin Vantruba

There were 6 saves in it, and at least three that had no business being saves at all. The ten outfield players owe him a drink and they know it.

Market10 Aug 2026

Utenis come back empty-handed

The bid was some way short and Spartak Trnava did not need long over it. Nobody in the game reads a first refusal as the end of anything.

Transfer targets10 Aug 2026

Loïc Bessilé due for a Spartak Trnava medical

Everything agreed with AS Trencin, everything agreed with the player; a doctor is the only person left to persuade. The photograph is a day or two away.

Transfer targets10 Aug 2026

Bendegúz Kovács turns down Spartak Trnava

The clubs had agreed and the player had not. A snub, and a public one: AZ keep him, and the supporters here are left wondering what he had heard about the place.

Squad10 Aug 2026

Luka Khorkheli signs on for more

“Some decisions take a long time. This one took ten minutes, and most of that was finding a pen.” Luka Khorkheli and Spartak Trnava agree another 3 years.

Transfer targets10 Aug 2026

Door shut on Denis Višinský

Spartak Trnava asked and Viktoria Plzen said no without discussing a figure. It is the least ambiguous answer in football and the one clubs most often come back to test.

Squad10 Aug 2026

Roman Procházka in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Spartak Trnava this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Match1 Aug 2026

Philip Elayo Azango leads the rout of Tatran Prešov

5‑0, and Philip Elayo Azango took the headlines on an afternoon when everything Spartak Trnava tried came off. Days like this are retold all winter.

Player ratings3 Aug 2026

Timotej Kudlička scores twice — 8.75

Two goals and a mark of 8.75 to go with them. Strikers are judged on afternoons like this one and remembered for far fewer of them than people imagine.

Player ratings3 Aug 2026

Both of them Philip Elayo Azango's — 8.58

2 goals, and the second was the one that settled it. Marked 8.58, and he could have had a third with better luck at the near post.

Slavia Kroměříž come back empty-handed

The bid was some way short and Spartak Trnava did not need long over it. Nobody in the game reads a first refusal as the end of anything.

Words exchanged at Spartak Trnava

Jakub Sylvestr and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

Squad3 Aug 2026

Libor Holík stays put

“The easiest signature of my career.” Libor Holík and Spartak Trnava agree another 4 years, and the manager can plan around him rather than about him.

Sparta Prague tell Spartak Trnava: Joao Grimaldo is not for sale

The approach was made and the answer came back in a sentence. There is no number on the table because there was no number that would have been enough.

The terraces3 Aug 2026

Spartak Trnava supporters have found a favourite in Timotej Kudlička

There is a particular warmth a ground reserves for a 22-year-old it feels ownership of. Timotej Kudlička has it now, and everything he does for the rest of his time here will be measured against the goodwill he was handed for free.

Player ratings3 Aug 2026

Ninety minutes of Kristián Koštrna at his very best

Marked 8.29. Players have careers without a single afternoon like this in them, and he has just had one in front of everybody at Spartak Trnava.
