Pogoń Szczecin is in talks with Silkeborg over the transfer of Pedro Ganchas, a 25-year-old Portuguese defender. Ganchas has 190 cm height, is left-footed and plays as a central defender. In the previous season, he played 35 matches, scored 3 goals and made one assist. Szczecinianie have been struggling with their performance in the previous season, and the team's defense has been one of the problems. After the arrival of Alex Haditaghie, the club is trying to sort out its finances and build a new squad. Pogoń Szczecin has received an offer from Maccabi Tel Awiw for Leo Borgesa and Dimitriosis Keramitsisa, but the club has not accepted the offer and it seems that both players will not leave the club. The future of Benjamin Mendy, Attila Szalaia and Leonardo Koutris is uncertain. Ganchas would be a good fit for the team's defense, but his left foot gives him an extra advantage. There are not many defenders like him on the market, especially those who are in good shape, have regular games in the Scandinavian league and experience from Portugal. Before moving to Denmark, he was associated with Benfica at the junior level and later played for Paços Ferreira. He joined Silkeborg in the summer of 2024. The Danes paid around 400,000 euros for him, and his value has increased significantly over the past two seasons. His contract with the Portuguese player expires on June 30, 2028, so Silkeborg does not have to sell him cheaply. This may be the biggest obstacle for Pogoń. From the perspective of the Portuguese club, this would not be a simple transfer. A player valued at 1.7 million euros, with a valid contract and a good position in the club, is unlikely to leave for symbolic money. If Pogoń is in talks, it must be prepared for a more significant expense or seek a formula that will convince Silkeborg. Pogoń Szczecin needs stability in defense, not just new names for rotation. It seems that the Polish club will choose between a new defender and keeping Attila Szalaia, who is only on loan — but it seems that he would like to stay with Pogoń.
