PKO BP Ekstraklasa

Bruk-Bet Termalica Nieciecza surprised fans by signing Jesús Jiménez, who signed a contract until June 30, 2027. The 31-year-old Spanish striker, well-known for his appearances for Górnik Zabrze (2018-2022), where he scored 37 goals and provided 25 assists in 121 Ekstraklasa matches, is returning to Poland after adventures in the MLS, Greece, and India.

Renovations at the Motor Lublin stadium, aimed at reducing the capacity of the away section, have been completed. It was too large, and only a few teams were able to fill it, explains Łukasz Jabłoński, vice president of the "Pride of Kozi Grodu" stadium.

Maximillian Oyedele is leaving Legia after just one season. The young midfielder's new club will be Strasbourg.

In just a few hours, Legia Warsaw will begin its Europa League qualifying campaign. With the Warsaw team facing significant personnel issues, Edward Iordanescu, who is making his debut on the bench for the Capitals, may have a tough nut to crack.

The Polish Ekstraklasa is becoming an increasingly popular destination for players who, after playing in foreign leagues, decide to return to their homeland. The current transfer window was full of such moves, with names like Marcin Kamiński, Robert Gumny, and Karol Struski warming the hearts of fans. This trend is gaining momentum, and speculation about further returns only fuels excitement. What makes the Polish league attract "prodigal sons"?

Legia signed a defender and... sent him on vacation. Europe awaits, Stojanović is packing his bags. All that's left is an inflatable flamingo and he can return to the bench.

After a season with Widzew Łódź, Jakub Łukowski is changing his colors to gold, green, and black and moving to GKS Katowice. His contract with Widzew has expired, and the club has decided not to extend it.

Juan Ibiza, until recently a Widzew player, has found a new employer after his contract with the Ekstraklasa team expired. The Spaniard will play for the Thai champions, Buriram United, starting next season.

Arka Gdynia is well-prepared for its return to the Ekstraklasa. The team remained unbeaten in the final stages of the first-division season, won three of four friendlies, and strengthened its squad significantly (including Kerk, Zator, and Percan). With no losses, a stable coach, and a strong defense, Arka could surprise and fight for more than just relegation.

Górnik Zabrze has made some interesting additions in the current summer transfer window. Young—jun Goh, Maksymilian Pingot, Natan Dziegielewski, Wiktor Nowak, Michal Sacek, Jarosław Kubicki, Gabriel Barbosa, Theodoros Tsirigotis, Tomasz Loska, and Bastien Donio have joined Górnik Zabrze. Marcel Lubik has also joined the club on loan. Nikodem Zielonka, Norbert Barczak, Kamil Soberka, and Jan Ciucka have returned to Górnik Zabrze from loans from other clubs. Thanks to these signings, Górnik Zabrze essentially finalized its squad for the 2025/26 season at the beginning of July, and further additions to the Zabrze team will likely be aimed at supplementing its already deep and quality squad.

Widzew and Jagiellonia players, who are attending a summer training camp in Opalenica, played a friendly match on Sunday morning, which ended with a resounding victory for Widzew, 7-1.

Edward Iordănescu was supposed to begin his tenure at Legia Warsaw with a clear plan: strengthen the squad, fight for the championship, and return to Europe. However, according to Romanian media reports, the coach was misled by the club, which promised transfers but failed to deliver any reinforcements during the training camp in Austria. Iordănescu works primarily with youth and second-string players. Although he remains silent, he is said to be disappointed and frustrated. An internal conflict between him and the board may only be a matter of time.
