[Albion] Golden Boy 'Michal Karbownik - VOTE

[Hugo Rune]

-Ⓞ-Ⓡ-Ⓐ;9682830]Hmnn, not sure. The Michał would be pronounced Me-How - the L at the end of Michał with a line through it is pronounced like an English W

Oops, you are right. I wrote me-how down in my pronunciation lesson but misspelt on post!

Not sure what Anderlecht have over Legia as far as his development in concerned.

Wouldn't a loan spell in the UK work out better from a football point of view? Is this a work permit thing?

I'd imagine it is this. Simply by playing in a higher ranking league, he would get more 'points' towards reaching the post-brexit requirement for a work permit (further points for playing in the champions league or Europa league). There are points on offer for playing international football too (including u23s)

There's a football weekly podcast out this week that explains it - I listened to half of it on this morning's dog walk!

Combination of getting more points for the work permit and playing at a higher level.

Wouldn't it have been better to have got him over here before the 31st (as we did with Moder). I'm assuming that any EU players in the country by then wouldn't need permits (if they did, a few clubs, including us, would have a lot of paperwork to sort out)

Well suited for the White Stripes.

Moder arrived under the new rules but he qualified because of his International and Europa League games.

No - it won't be a permit issue.


He was signed under the old rules.

Moder arrived under the new rules but he qualified because of his International and Europa League games.

I thought that both Moder and Karbownik can play immediately (if required) as we signed them before we left the EU (or at least, the transition period)?

I don't think it matters when we signed them, as they were both on loan in Poland so would be registered there, not in the UK.

Possibly being moved on loan away from Poland?

 

[Hugo Rune]

This fella looks like the closest we have to Lamptey & March in the wing back positions. He is right footed and can play on either flank. Hopefully he’ll with us soon.

Closest I've seen to confirmation of his recall is now listed in the Brighton Squad on transfermarkt (no longer in the 'on loan')

https://www.transfermarkt.com/brighton-amp-hove-albion/startseite/verein/1237

Have also changed Billy Arce's status as being part of the squad though not sure that is true..

I'm fairly sure he would have had to have already been working in the UK to qualify as an EU national, so he'll still needs a work permit to play. Fortunately, the new points system makes it much easier and it should be a breeze assuming that he played in most of Legia's league games and Champions League matches.

I wouldn't read too much into that. It is in no way official and is run by volunteers.

Yes the valuations on Transfermrkt are a nonsense. Most other stuff regarding contract lengths and player appearance data is spot on though.

Club website says he's been recalled.

Recalled, confirmed by the club

To cover for Bernardo’s departure I assume. From the YouTube videos of him, he seems to play a bit like Lamptey although at left back even though he’s right footed. Isn’t he injured at the moment though?

The injury reports seemed to suggest he would be back playing in January, he only missed two games in Poland due to their winter break.

I understood he was an ambipedal.
