Zaglebie make their move for Jonatan Braut Brunes
$4.5M on the table at Raków Częstochowa. The manager wanted him, the board agreed a number, and the only voices still to be heard are the ones at the other club.

No hiding place for Filip Szymczak
“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Filip Szymczak, and the manager let it.

- Boardroom Nobody left the Zaglebie dressing room in a hurry
