Adrian Purzycki: that is not what I was promised
“Things were said to me before I signed. I am not going to repeat them, but I remember all of them.” Odra Opole have not answered, which is an answer of sorts.
Player ratings26 Jul 2027
Adam Chrzanowski pops up at the right end — 7.89
7.89, 1 on the scoresheet, and the specific comedy of a back-four player celebrating like somebody who does this every week. He does not, and that is exactly why the ground reacted the way it did.

A falling-out at Odra Opole
Kacper Przybyłko and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

Odra Opole baulk at the price for Wojciech Zborek
Lech wanted more than $150.0K and the board would not go there. Walked away, for now, which in a transfer window means until somebody blinks.

The approach was made and the answer came back in a sentence. There is no number on the table because there was no number that would have been enough.

One of our own: Robert Klich joins the Odra Opole first team
Clubs spend fortunes looking for players and occasionally find one down the corridor. Robert Klich is that, and the reception he gets on his first appearance will be different in kind from the one any signing receives.

Lukasz Linetty steps up from the Odra Opole academy
There is no fee, no unveiling and no agent on the steps. Lukasz Linetty has been at this club since he was a boy and is now, formally, one of the first-team squad — which for a local readership beats any signing of any size.
