It has been a trying start to the season to be honest. First there was the surgical procedure on Ricardo Lavolpe that had me worrying about things far bigger than Footy, then came the concern of Humberto Suazo possibly leaving the club and of recent Felipe Baloy walking off. While each of these situations worked [...]

While there is only a very brief release, after six years of tremendously loyal service with the Rayados, comprised of 213 matches, Walter Erviti has transferred to Club Atlético Banfield which is located just outside of his hometown Buenos Aires.

The facility will equally be used by lower division squads but as noted by the coaching staff, it will help create “Rayados of the future”. On a broader perspective [...]
