The young pole opened his account in style by netting a brace on his 20th birthday, first firing an impressive volley into the far corner to put his side ahead before doubling the lead in the second half with a sensational effort from outside the box.
Shipped out on loan for the second season running, it is not likely that Marcelo Bielsa sees the young midfielder in his visions for the future, but his recent contributions in Spain have gone a long way to convincing fans that Bogusz might be worth another look.
Ian Poveda - Blackburn Rovers
Poveda has been left out of the squad for Blackburn’s last two fixtures as he recovers from a hamstring complaint.
