Player ratings24 Aug 2026

Pau Sans, 21, plays like he has been here for years — 7.88

A mark of 7.88 means one thing beside a twenty-nine-year-old's name and something else entirely beside a 21-year-old's. Nobody at the ground needed telling which this was.

Market24 Aug 2026

Henrich Ravas 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 Cracovia can pretend not to have heard.

Boardroom24 Aug 2026

Cracovia go back to the board over Kacper Łukasiak

The number the board signed off was not enough. It has been asked again and raised its own offer to $389.4K — a club that wants Kacper Łukasiak enough to be asked twice.

Market24 Aug 2026

Kamil Jakubczyk is a Cracovia player

The fee is $570.0K, the contract is signed, and the argument about whether he is worth it can begin. Arka Gdynia drove a hard bargain; time will say who won it.

Transfer targets24 Aug 2026

Nicolás Castagno will not be coming to Cracovia

Terms were offered and declined. Whether it was the wages, the role or the town, nobody at Andorra is saying, and nobody at Cracovia is enjoying the guessing.

Market24 Aug 2026

Cracovia turn down Chernomorets for Nikita Iosifov

The offer was not close and it was refused without much discussion. Whether the second one is refused as quickly is another matter.

Squad24 Aug 2026

Tempers go at Cracovia

Mateusz Klich was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Transfer targets24 Aug 2026

No deal for Kacper Łukasiak at that price

Cracovia offered $350.0K; GKS Katowice said it was not close. The manager will be told the money is still there for the right player, which is what managers are told.

Market24 Aug 2026

Austria Klagenfurt watching Brahim Traoré

The interest is real enough to have reached print. Cracovia have said nothing, which in a transfer window is its own kind of answer.

Match15 Aug 2026

Cracovia run riot against Gornik Zabrze

4‑1, and the margin flattered nobody — it could have carried another goal or two without complaint. Afternoons like this are why people keep coming.

Market17 Aug 2026

Cracovia turn down ŁKS Łódź for Sebastian Madejski

The offer was not close and it was refused without much discussion. Whether the second one is refused as quickly is another matter.

Player ratings17 Aug 2026

Wiktor Bogacz scores twice — 8.50

Two goals and a mark of 8.50 to go with them. Strikers are judged on afternoons like this one and remembered for far fewer of them than people imagine.

Player ratings17 Aug 2026

A brace, and Dijon Kameri takes the afternoon — 8.31

There is a particular kind of quiet from an away end watching one man score twice. Dijon Kameri provided it, and the 8.31 beside his name is if anything generous to everybody else.

Supporters turn on the $5.3M sale of Gabriel Charpentier

He is going to Hammarby, the club has $5.3M it did not have on Friday, and the phone-ins have already decided how they feel about that. Selling well and selling somebody they loved are not the same skill.

Market17 Aug 2026

Gabriel Charpentier moves on

Hammarby pay $5.3M, and the deal is done. The number reads well on a balance sheet; whether it reads well on the pitch is next season's question.

Transfer targets17 Aug 2026

Raków Częstochowa tell Cracovia: Jonatan Braut Brunes is not for sale

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.

Boardroom17 Aug 2026

Cracovia go back to the board over Dion Gallapeni

The number the board signed off was not enough. It has been asked again and raised its own offer to $55.1K — a club that wants Dion Gallapeni enough to be asked twice.

Transfer targets17 Aug 2026

Cracovia make their move for Kacper Łukasiak

$320.0K on the table at GKS Katowice. The manager wanted him, the board agreed a number, and the only voices still to be heard are the ones at the other club.

Market10 Aug 2026

Cracovia turn down Stal Mielec for Martin Minchev

The offer was not close and it was refused without much discussion. Whether the second one is refused as quickly is another matter.

Transfer targets10 Aug 2026

Cracovia make their move for Jonatan Braut Brunes

$1.9M 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.

Transfer targets10 Aug 2026

Cracovia bid $570.0K for Kamil Jakubczyk

The offer went to Arka Gdynia this week and it is theirs to answer. First bids are rarely meant to succeed; they are meant to find out how loud the door closes.

Boardroom10 Aug 2026

Cracovia go back to the board over Jonatan Braut Brunes

The number the board signed off was not enough. It has been asked again and raised its own offer to $2.1M — a club that wants Jonatan Braut Brunes enough to be asked twice.

Squad10 Aug 2026

Sebastian Madejski signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Sebastian Madejski commits to Cracovia for another 3 years.

Squad10 Aug 2026

Words exchanged at Cracovia

Mateusz Klich and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

Transfer targets10 Aug 2026

An offer of $43.0K for Dion Gallapeni

Cracovia have gone to Widzew Łódź with a bid, and the supporters have gone to the internet with an opinion about it. Whether either changes anything is up to the selling club.

Transfer targets10 Aug 2026

Door shut on Nick Homan

Cracovia asked and AZ said no without discussing a figure. It is the least ambiguous answer in football and the one clubs most often come back to test.

Match8 Aug 2026

Legia take the points off Cracovia

Beaten 1‑2, and beaten fairly. The manager kept his words short afterwards, which was probably wise.

Cracovia say no — this time

The offer from Kapfenberg for Dijon Kameri 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.

Player ratings3 Aug 2026

Mateusz Klich, 36, rolls back the years — 7.89

There is an age at which every good afternoon gets described as a throwback, which is unfair and also accurate. 7.89 at 36, and nobody on the pitch was better.

Squad3 Aug 2026

Dominik Baumgartner signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Dominik Baumgartner commits to Cracovia for another 3 years.

Squad3 Aug 2026

A falling-out at Cracovia

Mateusz Klich and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

Match1 Aug 2026

Cracovia see off Pogon

Three points for Cracovia, 3‑2 the final word against Pogon in a contest settled by the finer margins.

Squad3 Aug 2026

Martin Minchev wants to go home

“I have given this everything, but my family is not here and neither am I, not really.” A footballer can be coached out of bad form. Nobody has ever been coached out of this, and Cracovia know it.

Transfer targets3 Aug 2026

Door shut on Viktor Bjarki Daðason

Cracovia asked and FC Copenhagen said no without discussing a figure. It is the least ambiguous answer in football and the one clubs most often come back to test.

Squad3 Aug 2026

Kamil Glik retires from international football

“103 caps. I have loved every one, and it is somebody else’s turn.” At 38 he has stepped away from his country and is going nowhere at Cracovia.

Player ratings3 Aug 2026

A masterclass from Sayfallah Ltaief

Marked 8.05 — the sort of number a correspondent writes down twice to be sure. Everything he tried came off, and what he did not try was not worth trying.
