An unnamed Polish club is preparing a winter offer for Darko Churlinov, a 25-year-old North Macedonian winger at Kocaelispor. While the Turkish club is not currently considering a transfer, their decision will depend on the offer and the player's attitude. Besides Jagiellonia and Legia Warszawa, which has shown interest in the past, Widzew Łódź is also mentioned as a potential suitor due to its financial capabilities. Churlinov joined Kocaelispor in September 2025 and is under contract until June 2027. The international, with 38 caps and 5 goals for North Macedonia, has made 11 appearances without scoring in the Süper Lig this season. His current Transfermarkt market value is €1.50m. In June 2025, Burnley's asking price was reportedly €2.5 million, while an unnamed Polish club was said to be ready to pay over €1 million for him; he previously moved from VfB Stuttgart to Burnley for a reported €3.5 million in August 2022.
