Well done the Albion. Sounded like Liverpool were keen, so quite a coup. Thank goodness for Dan Ashworth. Doh!!
Ah - that's our Caicedo replacement sorted!
Seriously, when to the Albion Kacper. I do wonder though, why USG? They're going for the Belgian championship, so surely won't want to disrupt the team in order to help develop a youngster for Brighton - or is there a work permit issue that prevents him going straight to an EFL club?
Born 2003 - I do feel old!
Great buy for our future. Well pleased we got him before Ashworth takes him to Newcastle.
Says in the press release, they want him to be playing regularly.
We would be mad not to !!
Once his off field problems are sorted he's gotta be one of the biggest prospects world football at the moment. Just praying he doesnt go to Newcastle.
They want him to, no doubt, but USG are not our feeder team. And at the moment, they are a winning team - they have no reason to want to change that to accommodate giving game time to a Brighton youngster.
Appreciate your greater knowledge of the USG squad, injury situation, etc. Looks as if Kacper has a better chance of game time than I thought (without USG being dictated to as a eeder club).They are looking for cover for their midfielder Senne Lynen who suffered a really serious ruptured knee ligament injury in the Autumn having started every game for USG previous to that.
Like any successful club, they’ll not just want a ‘body’ but someone who’ll push very hard for first team minutes. I wonder how many other players they’ve got have played in two Euro Championship matches?
Like Mitoma, this guy will be straight in if he is better than their other options.
I have watched him play here in Poland and the guy is an amazing talent and thought of as the best player in Polish football at the moment.
Get ready for hoards of Polish fans on social media. lol
I’m beginning to think that this may be a TB strategy. We all know how difficult it is to find goal scoring strikers and how they come at a premium price. Perhaps the whole false 9 experiment is about having midfielders that score goals. It would make sense to recruit lots so you could find the goal scoring gems and have a surplus to sell on at premium prices
Will they have forgiven us for binning off Polish international Michal Karbownik then?

Still would have preferred to see him acclimatising to the UK in an EFL club (work permit/immigration permitting). IMHO, that is - I do realise that the club know what they're doing!
It's a guess.Does this mean he is coming to us?
