Transfers Synthesis
Taken together, the recorded movement through 31 July 2026 shows a mixed pattern of arrivals and departures rather than a single mechanism. Arrivals include conventional transfers from CD Arabe Unido, Riga, Agde and Racing Colombes 92, free-agent additions from BFC Daugavpils, loans from Sport Boys and Riga, and returns from loan. Departures similarly combine a return to CD Arabe Unido, transfers to Gent and BFC Daugavpils, loans to Riga, free-agent moves and other listed exits. Activity is concentrated around January and February 2026, with further entries in March, April, June and July. A. Arroyo appears in both arrival and departure records, while K. Wassom is listed both as returning to Auda and as later leaving on loan. Because the movement lists are capped samples, they show documented patterns but cannot establish a complete window total, net balance or overall recruitment policy. No recorded fee is provided for these entries.

More about Auda
Auda is a Latvian football club with roots spanning Riga and Ķekava, and a modern identity built around green and black. The club’s story connects the northern districts of Riga with Ķekava, the municipality south of the capital, giving the club a distinct local character that bridges city and community. Green and black are the defining colors, carried through the badge, home identity and traditional kit design. The club’s historical narrative includes an earlier fisheries-cooperative team, the adoption of the Auda name, and a later merger with FK Alberts. Those chapters place Auda within the continuity of Latvian football rather than presenting it as a short-lived modern project. The academy presence in Ķekava remains an important part of that local structure, linking senior football with youth development and the club’s established home area. Auda’s venue profile reflects its dual geography. Audas stadions in Ķekava is central to the club’s historical setting, while Skonto Stadium in Riga provides the larger, more prominent stage used for senior matches and major competitions. The Riga base also gives the club access to the capital’s football infrastructure and a broader public profile. Organizationally, Auda operates within a wider sports network and maintains a strategic partnership associated with the Riga FC group, with shared infrastructure and resources forming part of that model. Its football ecosystem has an increasingly international profile, reflected in a squad with many overseas players and a coaching history that includes Latvian, Slovenian, Portuguese, Finnish and Croatian appointments. The recorded competition pathway shows progression from Latvia’s 1. Liga, where participation runs through 2021, into the Virsliga from 2022 onward. Auda has also appeared in the UEFA Europa Conference League in records from 2023 through 2025, giving the club a recurring place in the country’s European football landscape. This combination of local roots, green-black identity, capital-city venues and international football connections defines Auda’s place in Latvia’s club game.
