Pogoń Szczecin is searching for a new attacking midfielder and has set its sights on Luquinhas from Radomiak Radom. According to reports from the sportowefakty.wp.pl portal, the club from Szczecin is considering an intra-league transfer that could cost around 400,000 euros. This potential move comes in the context of their latest goalless draw against Zagłębie Lubin (0-0) on August 29th, which is part of a run of three consecutive draws in the Ekstraklasa.

Why does Pogoń need a new player?

The transfer activity is driven by the need to strengthen the offensive midfield area. The club had been interested in Lechia Gdańsk's Rifet Kapic for a long time, but talks collapsed due to financial disagreements between the clubs. The Kapic topic is now considered dead. This has redirected the scouts' attention to other options, including the Brazilian midfielder playing for Radomiak. A potential move for Luquinhas would be a classic within-league transfer, which often carries less adaptation risk for the player.

Who is Luquinhas and what is the potential fee?

Luquinhas joined Radomiak Radom at the end of January 2026. He is theoretically an offensive player, but his statistics this season are not dazzling. In 21 appearances, he has scored only one goal and provided one assist. Despite this, Pogoń sees potential for him to flourish in their system. The reported transfer fee is around 400,000 euros. For Radomiak, selling Luquinhas would mean losing their highest-paid player, which could be a significant factor in any potential negotiations.

What are the obstacles to the transfer?

Before any reinforcements, Pogoń Szczecin must first address squad registration limits. According to Ekstraklasa regulations, the club must sell one foreign player from its current squad before it can register a new one. This is a key condition that must be met before talks with Radomiak can enter a decisive phase. The club's management is working on this aspect this week, with the approaching transfer deadline in mind.

What's next for Pogoń's plans?

The immediate context for these transfer considerations is the team's upcoming fixtures. After a recent run of form that reads one win, three draws, and one loss in their last five matches (sequence DDDWL), the team needs to find more attacking potency. The next test is a home match against Wisła Płock scheduled for September 7th. The current squad details and team statistics are always available on our squad and stats pages. Success in this match could give the team the needed momentum ahead of a potential new arrival. The decision regarding Luquinhas will therefore be closely tied to the immediate sporting results and the possibilities for squad adjustment.
