Club Brugge snap up Lech Poznan star Michal Skoras

<p>Belgian Pro League side Club Brugge have completed the signing of Lech Poznan winger Michal Skoras.&nbsp;</p>

The 23-year-old Poland international made 48 appearances for Lech this season across all competition and bagged 15 goals along the way.

<p>Seven of those goals came in the Europa Conference League as Lech made Polish football history by becoming the first Ekstraklasa club to reach a continental quarter-final since the turn of the century.</p>

<p>Skoras went to last year's World Cup with Poland and featured during the 2-0 defeat to Argentina in the group stage.</p>

<p>At the end of the season, the player will head to Belgium following an &euro;8m move - a sum which makes him the fourth most expensive player in Ekstraklasa history.</p>

Kacper Kozlowski and Jakub Moder currently top that list after being snapped up by Brighton for €11m each.

Jakub Kaminski, who also played for Lech, is third following his €10m move to Wolfsburg.

<p>Following the announcement, Skoras said: "I came to the conclusion that this would be the best move for me.</p>

"This is a place where I will be able to continue to develop my skills. Lech was able to mould me as a player, something I'm very grateful for.

"Before the end of the season, I want to show myself in the best light at the club. But even now I would like to thank all fans and all the people involved with Lech who kept their fingers crossed for me."

Lech have a history of exporting top talent to the wider continent. Arguably the best example is Robert Lewandowski who moved from Poznan to Borussia Dortmund in the 2010/11 season for €4.5m.
