Motor Lublin is actively searching for new players before the summer transfer window closes. Coach Mariusz Misiura confirmed the sporting director is presenting further candidates to the club, with early advanced talks ongoing for two or three players, as reported by Lublin24.pl.

The Lublin club sits 13th in the PKO BP Ekstraklasa table after five matches, with five points from one win, two draws, and two losses. They have scored six goals and conceded eight, leaving them six points behind league leaders Legia Warszawa.

Which positions does Motor Lublin want to strengthen?

The Motor Lublin squad requires reinforcements in specific areas. The club needs players for the number nine, number eight, and winger positions. Summer signings have already arrived, including goalkeeper Mihai Popa, defenders Bartosz Bereszyński and Tin Plavotić, midfielders Mateusz Łęgowski and Yacine Bourhane, wingers Makan Aïko and Kamil Łukoszek, and striker Dominik Gregorski. But the business is not finished.

Misiura predicted very high transfer activity in the final two weeks of the window and expressed belief that new players will arrive. The detailed squad can be followed on our squad page.

Who is closest to joining the Lublin club?

The transfer closest to completion for Motor Lublin is a defensive midfielder from Senegal. Coach Misiura revealed that all paperwork for this move has long been completed and the club remains in constant contact with the player. “All paperwork has been done for a long time. We are in constant contact with the player,” the manager said.

The player reportedly already has a work permit, with the arrival date now dependent on visa issuance. The club's management believes in the Senegalese midfielder's potential, expecting he could become a leading figure after an initial adaptation period. This continues an African theme at the club, which previously signed players like Mbaye Jacques Ndiaye and Christopher 'Kikis' Simon.

What about captain Karol Czubak?

Media reports have suggested interest from Spanish side Levante in signing Motor's captain, Karol Czubak. The club's hierarchy firmly rejects such scenarios. The team's owner has publicly declared he will not consider any offers for the squad's top players. Coach Misiura emphasizes his trust in the consistent actions of the owner and president, providing stability during this hectic period.

What are the plans for the coming weeks?

Motor Lublin faces an intense period ahead. The immediate goal is to finalize the squad before the transfer window closes. “We have two weeks, the director is presenting us with further candidates. With two or three players we are at an early advanced stage,” Misiura added.

Simultaneously, the team must focus on performances. Their current position in the standings needs improvement, and upcoming matches will be vital. The next test awaits Motor on December 12th, when they will face Widzew Łódź, who are ninth in the table, at their home stadium. Before that clash, the club has time to integrate new signings and work on form. Fixture details are available on our fixtures page.
