Mariusz Fornalczyk leaving Korona Kielce?
Mariusz Fornalczyk has shown significant improvement in form and if he maintains this at the U-21 European Championship, he is likely to attract interest. Several Major League Soccer teams are reportedly interested and ready to activate his release clause of 1.5 million euros.
There is interest from Widzew Łódź in acquiring Mariusz Fornalczyk. The main obstacle is a buyout clause exceeding one million euros. Damian Czyżak from the FUTBOLOWNIA channel mentioned this potential move.
Mariusz Fornalczyk has attracted interest from Widzew Łódź due to his impressive performance in the spring round, where he scored three goals and provided two assists. The club owner, Łukasz Maciejczyk, expressed that they would not hinder his development if he decides to move to a bigger club. The buyout clause is over one million euros, likely less than 1.5 million.
Mariusz Fornalczyk is considered for a summer move by Widzew Łódź. He has a release clause of 1.5 million EUR, but Korona Kielce hopes to extend his contract to nullify this clause. Korona Kielce is also counting on his performance in the upcoming U21 European Championship to increase his value. The player moved to Korona in January last year, with Pogoń Szczecin retaining a percentage of his next transfer fee.
Widzew Łódź is very interested in Mariusz Fornalczyk but is unwilling to pay the 1.5 million euro buyout clause. They are willing to pay several hundred thousand euros instead.
Mariusz Fornalczyk, who plays for Korona Kielce, has attracted interest from other clubs following his outstanding performances. Paweł Tomczyk, the sports director, indicated in an interview with 'Przegląd Sportowy Onet' that the club has set his value at 1.5 million euros. Achieving this sale would set a new record for the club, exceeding the previous record held by Paweł Golański, who was transferred for 1.3 million euros to Romanian FCSB. Fornalczyk is regarded as an essential player for both Korona and the Polish U21 national team. His contract with Korona runs until June 30, 2026.
Mariusz Fornalczyk is also drawing considerable interest in the transfer market. However, Korona Kielce's president Artur Jankowski confirmed that Fornalczyk will not depart during the winter window. The club will consider offers for a potential sale in the summer next year.
