Michał Rakoczy Transfer from Cracovia Kraków to Zagłębie Lubin
Cracovia has rejected an offer from Zagłębie Lubin for Michał Rakoczy due to high financial demands. Cracovia is ready to sell but demands a high price of 1.5 million euros.
Cracovia received an offer from Zagłębie Lubin for the permanent transfer of Michał Rakoczy. However, the offer, which amounted to several hundred thousand PLN, was rejected by Cracovia as it did not meet their expectations. Cracovia is open to selling the player during the winter transfer window but has mostly received loan offers, which they are not interested in.
Zagłębie Lubin is interested in loaning Michał Rakoczy until the end of the current season. Cracovia, however, prefers to sell the player by winter.
Michał Rakoczy is reportedly linked with a transfer in January. Cracovia had previously anticipated earning over 2.5 million euros from selling the offensive midfielder, but it is now expected that the amount will be less. Rakoczy has lost his spot in the starting lineup due to his performance and an adductor muscle injury. Cracovia is planning to find him a new team to play with in the spring, and Zagłębie Lubin has inquired about a loan move, which includes an option to buy for an undisclosed amount. Discussions are currently ongoing, and Rakoczy was notably absent from a New Year's training match, possibly to prevent any risk of injury amid the negotiations.
Michał Rakoczy had been contemplating a move away from Ekstraklasa due to his poor form, which led to him losing his spot in Cracovia's lineup. According to a report by Damian Smyk from Goal.pl, Zagłębie Lubin expressed interest in Rakoczy by submitting a loan proposal until the end of the campaign, with an option to purchase. Cracovia had initially hoped to receive 2.5 million euros for the midfielder, but it now seems unlikely that they will obtain this amount. Rakoczy, known as a young and talented player with over 110 appearances for Cracovia, is viewed as a potential reinforcement for Zagłębie Lubin, who are currently facing challenges in the league.
