Semir Stilic can expect to see some of his fellow countrymen in the following days, as Lech sign three more Bosnian's before Feyenoord in the UEFA Cup.
 
Bosnian colony
Shortly Bosnians are likely to be the largest - next to the Poles - colony of players in KKS Lech Poznan. For Sémir Stilic, Lech will soon include three of his countrymen: Jasmin Burić, Haris Handzić and Fenan Salicinović. The transfer of Stilic caused the 'Kolejorz' little sorrow when the Peruvian, Henry Quinteros left, who at all costs wanted to return to his homeland, where he was to take care of his sick father. This time the shopping experience may be taking available roster spots from the Poles. The Polish club also bought promising Croatian midfielder, Gordan Golik who is hoped to be the next Stilic at Poznan

No more Polish keepers at Lech
The purchase of Bosnian goal keeper, Jasmin Buric can already mean reserve keeper Krzysztof Kotorowski's career at Lech is in a coffin. It is now more likely then ever that Kotorowski will leave Lech in the winter transfer window. The future of 'Kotor' will be clarified on the 18th of December, where the club executives will meet with the player's agent, Przemyslaw Erdman. Kotorowski himself declared that he does not feel weaker than any of his competition and wants to play until the end of his contract, which is in June 2009, and to fight for his position back in the starting XI. However, it is clear that Lech does not intend to start the new year with three goalkeepers. The club instead have started to take orders for goal keepers. One of which Pawel Linka, who left Lech to sign a possible contract with the Greek Skoda Xanthi, the same club also offering to buy Kotorowski.

Complete player
The second of the young goal keepers at Lech is David Kret, who in the spring will play in the Mloda Ekstraklasa, or instead likely will be loaned out. The Croatian, Ivan Turina is currently the number one goal keeper at Lech. If the transfer of the Bosnian Buricia is confirmed, it will also mean one place less for Kotorowski. And finally, Haris Handzić. "He is a complete player, and we are very happy to see him at Lech. If the young Handzic proves to fair well, we will consider selling some players." Lech President Andrzej Kadziński explained. It seems that after buying the Bosnian, Lech is in the preparation of letting go Hernan Rengifo to a bigger club.
