Grzegorz Tomasiewicz damages knee ligaments — 64 days out
The words a physio says slowly. 64 days is what the club will announce and everybody who has heard this diagnosis before knows the number is the least of it: the knee comes back before the player does.

Mateusz Lewandowski 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 Piast can pretend not to have heard.

A fracture rules Marcin Glik out for 43 days
Bones knit. That is the one merciful thing about this injury and the reason Piast will talk about it more openly than they would about a knee. He will be back, and roughly when they say.

No thanks: Jan Paluska rejects the move
Piast had done everything except persuade the man himself. He stays at Slavia Prague, and the manager goes back to the drawing board with the money still in the bank.

This is not rotation. Andreas Katsantonis has not been in the manager's plans for some time, and nobody at Piast is pretending otherwise.

Door shut on David Kabala
Piast asked and Ruch said no without discussing a figure. It is the least ambiguous answer in football and the one clubs most often come back to test.

Mateusz Spychała falls out with a teammate over standards
The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

A loan move for Leandro Andrade is in the works
Piast have made the call to Sparta Prague. No fee, a share of the wages, and a spare shirt in the position where the squad has been thinnest all season.
