"Norwich City are rivalling Championship rivals Derby County for the signing of Arka Gdynia winger Olaf Kobacki, according to reports in Poland."

Left winger with 13 goals and 5 assists in 32 games last season.

Will we even play with wingers? I though we would be playing with wing backs.

I feel Warne will look to play 352/343 so we won't needing traditional wingers.

A Polish winger?

[Eoghan1884]

Looking at Twitter a lot of reports and fans of the club seem to think he’s finalising a move to an unamed English championship club. So could be us, also seen a lot of Norwich fans saying they don’t need to sign any wingers.

We’ve been linked with 2 foreign players in a day. I used to pray for times like this

Name sounds quite similar to 'Kabaddi'. 

So no chant for him... but every time he gets the ball we just say his name over and over until he passes it on. 

[TomTom92]

I imagine Norwich will win this if we both want him. 
 
Nice to be linked from a player abroad though.

I’m sure there’s an Agadoo version lurking in there somewhere 🤣

You would have thought Lech Poznan would have told all the other Polish clubs never answer a number beginning with 01332 after the debacle of paying off Jozwiaks deal.

Bjorn Otto Bragstad forever a legend for the kudos you receive when playing the “name a random Derby player” game with your pals.

I think he was highly rated whilst a (very) young player and moved to Atalanta’s academy which is one of the best in Italy. He didn’t progress, as planned, was typically used as a squad player up until his last season there where he did play a number of games - obviously before deciding to part ways. He went back to Poland, played top flight but struggled. He then played in the second division this season and did really well. He is a technically gifted player, brought up the right way and can play anywhere across the frontline. It will be a cheap deal and definitely not one earmarked to go straight into the first team, but opportunities off the bench - maybe a loan initially.

If we have to pay money for him, we’re not in a position to spend money and then loan someone out. It’d be for the first team/squad. 

Having said that, we’re not short of wide players so can’t see it being true.

Think Clowes is more long term than that though. I think if there’s a small fee we can pay for a player with the potential to go up significantly in value then he’d sanction it - particularly now our spending is entirely restricted by what he’s willing to underwrite for us (assuming we go nowhere near losses that would see us in trouble).
