Vegalta Sendai announced on 2 July that they have signed Jakub Slowik from Polish side Slask Wroclaw.

27-year-old Slowik, who will be succeeding the departing Daniel Schmidt, has played in various clubs in his home country of Poland and in the 2018/19 season, made 35 league appearances for Slask Wroclaw.

Slowik left a message on Sendai’s club website: “I would like to thank the club officials for giving me the opportunity to play as a member of the team. I really cannot wait to play in front of a full stadium of Sendai supporters. I look forward to meeting you at the training ground and in the stadium. I promise to do my very best to contribute to the development of Vegalta Sendai. Thank you for the support.”

The transfer window opens on 19 July, hence the earliest Slowik can make his debut will be against Cerezo Osaka on 20 July.

Sendai had previously announced the signing of Brazilian forward Diogo Acosta.
