Hull City lodge transfer bid for highly-rated attacker according to club’s sporting director
The Tigers are casting their net far and wide in the transfer marke
Hull City have lodged a bid for highly-rated Polish youngster Karol Borys, according to Śląsk Wrocław sporting director David Balda, though the enquiry was rebuffed.
The 17-year-old left-footed attacking midfielder, who previously had a trial at Manchester United, is regarded as one of Poland’s top young talents and is attracting the interest of a host of European clubs, including the Tigers, having penned his first professional contract in 2021.
Born in 2006, the talented teenager has been capped by his country at Under-16, 17 and 18 level and helped the country reach the semi-finals of the European Championships in Indonesia back in November.
Borys’ contract with Śląsk Wrocław runs out in summer 2026, but Balda says the youngster would be available for around 2m euros, though there is an expectation that he would not be granted a work permit given his age and the fact he’s not playing in one of Europe’s top leagues and would therefore need to be loaned out before arriving in Hull, should the move progress.
“I confirm the offers from Fiorentina and Hull City. Other clubs are also taking information and at the moment there is no option for the Netherlands,” Balda is reported as saying.
