Scoring charts

Nobody scored more than Jeremy Agbonifo

The month closes with Jeremy Agbonifo out in front — 2 goals in 2 games, and Jagiellonia have the division's most feared finisher.

Scoring charts

Jeremy Agbonifo is the month's best young player — 8.17

The award the rest of the division reads as a transfer rumour. 8.17 over the month and 3 goal contributions, from a Jagiellonia player whose price has just gone up without anybody at his club doing anything.

Market

Not going: Dawid Kurminowski stays at Lechia

“I know what people will say. I know what I want, and it is here.” Vojvodina had the fee agreed and the shirt ready; they did not have the player, and now they will not.

Market

Levente Szabó asks to leave Zaglebie

“I have given everything here and I need a new challenge.” The request is formal, and the relationship will never be quite the same again.

Market

Levente Szabó’s move to Ruch falls through

The deal that would have taken Levente Szabó to Ruch has collapsed at the last stage, and he reports back to Zaglebie with a summer to forget and a season still to play. Nobody is saying which side walked away.

Scoring charts

Yvan Ikia Dimi leads the division for assists — 8.24

The chart that decides who the scorers ought to be thanking. 3 of them made by a Cracovia player marked 8.24, and not one will be in the montage at the end of the season.

Market

Stjepan Davidović has one foot out of the door

Terms are settled between the clubs and the rest is paperwork and a photograph. Around Korona they have already started talking about him in the past tense.

Scoring charts

Highest marks in the league belong to a Wisla Krakow man

José Arnáiz averaged 8.45 over 2 appearances. Nothing about that will trend, and anybody who watched all four games would tell you it was the most accurate thing on this page.

Scoring charts

Marko Božić keeps the pressure on

2 goals in 1 appearances for Wisla Krakow leave him among the month's leading marksmen.

Scoring charts

Gabriel Charpentier makes the list

1 appearances, 2 goals, and a place among the division's leading scorers for the month. Strikers measure a season in exactly these lines.

Scoring charts

Pablo Rodríguez is right behind him

2 goals in 2 appearances for Piast, and a chart that would look very different if two of them had gone in off the post instead of past it.

Scoring charts

Mario Rivas keeps the pressure on

2 goals in 1 appearances for Slask leave him among the month's leading marksmen.

Scoring charts

Nobody scored more than Ezequiel Ávila

The month closes with Ezequiel Ávila out in front — 9 goals in 5 games, and Legia have the division's most feared finisher.

Scoring charts

Player of the month: Ezequiel Ávila — 8.67

Everybody in the division was measured and a Legia man came out on top: 8.67 across the month and 12 goal contributions. There is no serious case for anybody else.

Market

Terms done: Stjepan Davidović is going

Fee agreed, wages agreed, and Ruch waiting with a shirt. Nobody at Korona is pretending otherwise, and the supporters have stopped asking whether and started asking when.

Scoring charts

Shola Ogundana is the month's best young player — 8.15

The award the rest of the division reads as a transfer rumour. 8.15 over the month and 4 goal contributions, from a Lechia player whose price has just gone up without anybody at his club doing anything.

Market

Xavier Dziekoński hands in a written request

“I have nothing bad to say about this place. I just need to be somewhere else.” It is in writing now, which changes what Korona can pretend not to have heard.

Market

Korona say no — this time

The offer from Pogon for Ondřej Lingr was heard out and sent back the same day. First bids are rarely meant to succeed; they are meant to find out how loudly the door closes.

Market

The Ruch deal is off

Everything was agreed until it was not, and Xavier Dziekoński reports back to Korona with a summer to forget. Neither club is saying who walked away from the table.

Scoring charts

Jan Kuchta leads the division for assists — 8.05

The chart that decides who the scorers ought to be thanking. 5 of them made by a Legia player marked 8.05, and not one will be in the montage at the end of the season.

Scoring charts

Highest marks in the league belong to a Legia man

Ezequiel Ávila averaged 8.67 over 5 appearances. Nothing about that will trend, and anybody who watched all four games would tell you it was the most accurate thing on this page.

Scoring charts

Jan Kuchta makes the list

5 appearances, 4 goals, and a place among the division's leading scorers for the month. Strikers measure a season in exactly these lines.

Scoring charts

Still scoring: Janis Antiste

4 in 4 for Gornik Zabrze. Nobody outside his own ground is talking about him, which tends to be true of everybody on this list except the man at the top of it.

Scoring charts

Still scoring: Erik Prekop

6 in 5 for Gornik Zabrze. Nobody outside his own ground is talking about him, which tends to be true of everybody on this list except the man at the top of it.

Market

Luis Hernández hands in a written request

“I have nothing bad to say about this place. I just need to be somewhere else.” It is in writing now, which changes what Lech can pretend not to have heard.

Scoring charts

Nobody made more than Erik Prekop this month

3 assists, 8.15, and a Gornik Zabrze player who spent four weekends being the reason somebody else's name went in the paper. It is the least-rewarded skill in football and the easiest one to notice its absence.

Scoring charts

Highest marks in the league belong to a Wisla Krakow man

José Arnáiz averaged 8.25 over 4 appearances. Nothing about that will trend, and anybody who watched all four games would tell you it was the most accurate thing on this page.

Market

Only the photograph left for Ramil Mustafaev

Fee agreed, terms agreed, medical booked. Ramil Mustafaev will be somebody else’s player by the weekend, and around Cracovia the goodbyes have quietly begun.

Scoring charts

Still scoring: Ezequiel Ávila

3 in 3 for Legia. Nobody outside his own ground is talking about him, which tends to be true of everybody on this list except the man at the top of it.

Scoring charts

Player of the month: Jean-Pierre Nsame — 8.53

Everybody in the division was measured and a Pogon man came out on top: 8.53 across the month and 6 goal contributions. There is no serious case for anybody else.

Scoring charts

The division's brightest kid this month plays for Zaglebie

Newertton was marked 7.58 and had a hand in 2 goals. Every recruitment department in the country now has a file open, and the club that has him knows exactly what that means.

Market

Jakub Bednarczyk asks to leave Gornik Leczna

“I have given everything here and I need a new challenge.” The request is formal, and the relationship will never be quite the same again.

Scoring charts

Best marks in the division for Diego Martinez — 8.67

8.67 on average across 3 matches for Jagiellonia. The chart that notices the players a goal tally never does, and this month it noticed him.

Market

Sergio Busquets wants to know where this is going

“I want to win things, and I would like to do it here.” Nothing has been demanded and nothing has been threatened — but a boardroom at Lech hears a sentence like that exactly as it was built.

Market

Rafał Mamla has one foot out of the door

Terms are settled between the clubs and the rest is paperwork and a photograph. Around Korona they have already started talking about him in the past tense.

Janis Antiste up among the month's scorers

A productive month at Gornik Zabrze — 4 goals from 3 appearances, and a place near the top of the charts.

The division’s top provider is Marko Božić — 7.79

5 assists across the month from a Wisla Krakow player marked 7.79. Somebody has to open the door before anybody walks through it, and nobody in the league opened more.

Market

Daniel Håkans is on his way

The clubs have agreed terms, and what remains is formality: a medical, a photograph, a signature. Nobody at Lech is pretending he will be back in the shirt.

Scoring charts

José Arnáiz is the division's best-marked player — 9.00

The chart that catches everybody a goal tally never will: the centre-half who was immense for four weekends, the holding midfielder nobody outside his own ground has heard of. 9.00 across 5 matches for Wisla Krakow.

Janis Antiste keeps the pressure on

3 goals in 5 appearances for Gornik Zabrze leave him among the month's leading marksmen.

Daniel Håkans has said yes to Slask

The clock runs on Kellyn Acosta's contract

7 months left and silence from upstairs — no offer, no talks, nothing for his people to answer. Clubs that let a calendar do their negotiating usually end up negotiating with the calendar.

Jakub Szymański is free to find somewhere else

“I was told straight, and I would rather have it straight.” The manager at Ruch has been clear about where Jakub Szymański stands, which is more than many ever get.
