Legia Warszawa is considered a possible candidate to sign 25-year-old North Macedonian winger Darko Churlinov, having made approaches for the player in the past. An unnamed Polish team, probably from the Ekstraklasa, is preparing a winter offer for the Kocaelispor player. While his current club is not presently considering a transfer, their stance could be influenced by the offer and the player's wishes. Jagiellonia and Widzew Łódź are also mentioned as other potential destinations. Churlinov, who has 38 caps and 5 goals for North Macedonia, joined Kocaelispor in September 2025 and his contract runs until June 2027. His current Transfermarkt market value is €1.50m. In 11 Süper Lig appearances this season, he has not registered a goal or an assist. In June 2025, Burnley's asking price for the player was a reported €2.5 million, while his most recent transfer was a €3.5 million move from VfB Stuttgart to Burnley in August 2022.
