Assad Al-Hamlawi, who received an attractive offer from CS Universitatea Craiova, has left the training camp of Śląsk Wrocław. The transfer deal includes a fee of 950,000 EUR plus additional bonuses. Furthermore, Assad Al-Hamlawi is required to pay a penalty of 200,000 PLN due to his irresponsible behavior regarding his obligations as a player of Śląsk Wrocław.

During the spring round in Wrocław, Assad Al Hamlawi scored seven goals in 16 matches.

The transfer could indeed materialize, as reported by Goal.pl and confirmed by the account 'Footballforpalestine' on platform X.
