Stuck at West Bromwich Albion with little football, Kamil Grosicki appears to be actively looking for a way out.
Rejecting late moves to Turkey, Germany and Nottingham Forest during the January transfer window, the player was holding out for something else.
That appears to be a move to Legia Warsaw back in Poland, where their manager Czeslaw Michniewicz hinted talks could be going on behind the scenes regarding a transfer.
Well, Legia.net have information backing that up, claiming Grosicki’s transfer from the Hawthorns to Stadion Miejski im. Marszałka Józefa Piłsudskiego is ‘becoming more and more real’.
The website have gathered information suggesting the move ‘is topical and there is a chance that it will be finalised according to the wishes of the player and Legia’.
It’s made clear West Brom ‘will be happy to get rid of him five months before the end of his contract’, but the Polish side could have trouble accommodating his wages.
That’s because he has ‘very high financial requirements’, but Legia.net state there has ‘already been a conversation on this subject between Dariusz Mioduski (the club’s owner) and Grosicki’ about that particular subject.
The pair ‘agreed on the terms’ of a contract, but the Ekstraklasa side have to find the money to make it happen.
If they can gather it, then Grosicki will be a Legia player, and while ‘it will not be easy to implement, it’s certainly not impossible’.
It’s said the West Brom man, far from being short on offers, ‘puts Legia in first place’ on his list of desired destinations, and it could happen ‘that this season, part of the player’s salary will be paid’ by Baggies, suggesting a loan until the end of the season.
Following that, Grosicki would then ‘sign a contract for a year and a half with an option to extend it’.
West Brom will be hoping they find that money, then.
