Overview

  • Gumny joined from Lech Poznan in 2020 for €2 million and amassed 106 appearances with two goals and three assists.
  • A March 2024 cruciate ligament rupture curtailed his campaign and limited him to just seven matches last season.
  • The switch from a four-man backline to a three-man defense under new tactics further reduced his playing opportunities.
  • His market value dropped from around €5 million at its peak to approximately €1.5 million amid injury setbacks.
  • With his contract expiring on June 30, Gumny will leave Augsburg and is expected to seek a new club.
