Zagłębie Lubin has added talented Greek striker Michalis Kosidis to its roster. The 23-year-old, with experience in Greece and the Netherlands, is expected to become a key element in the "Coppers'" attack in the upcoming Ekstraklasa season.
Transfer to Zagłębie Lubin
The move to Zagłębie is a step in a new direction for Kosidis. The player has signed a contract until the end of June 2027, with the option to extend it. The transfer was made permanent, and the club quickly dispelled concerns about the player's health, confirming his full fitness to play. For Zagłębie, Kosidis is primarily a response to the need to strengthen the striker position following the departure of Dawid Kurminowski. His physical stature – 191 cm tall – and experience in various European leagues make him a natural attacking leader, capable of holding the ball and creating scoring opportunities.
What does Kosidis bring to the team?
The young Greek is a player characterized not only by his height but also by his versatility in attack. His statistics in the Netherlands and Puszcza show that he can both score and assist, which could be a significant asset for the team from Lower Silesia. Zagłębie prioritizes the development of young talent, and the transfer of Kosidis fits into this plan. His presence on the pitch should also increase competition for starting places, which always raises the level of the entire team.
The future in Lubin
Kosidis joined the team in early July 2025, preparing for the 2025 season at a training camp in Opalenica. He faces a tough fight for a starting spot, but also a chance to showcase his potential at the highest level of Polish football. For Zagłębie, this represents not only a strengthening of their attack but also an investment in a player with significant development potential who could become a key player for the club in the future.
