Tymoteusz Puchacz: playing in the Premier League is my dream

Tymoteusz Puchacz, a 27-year-old defender at Azerbaijan's Sabah FK, has said openly that he dreams of playing in the Premier League. He has a contract with the club until 30 June 2029.

Good form and a return to the national team

According to Sportowe Fakty, strong performances for Sabah FK and appearances in the Champions League helped Puchacz return to the Poland national team. Head coach Jan Urban called him up for both the previous camp and the current one.

In the 2026/27 season the defender has played 22 matches for his club and provided seven assists.

"You never know in football"

In an interview with Meczyki.pl, Puchacz said he feels very good in Azerbaijan, as does his wife, and praised the head coach and the whole staff. He added, however, that in football you never know what opportunities and what contract may come up.

Asked which league he would most like to play in, he replied: "I would like to play in the Premier League. It's my kind of dream."

For now, nothing in the sources points to concrete interest from any English club. This is only the player's own statement, not news of negotiations.

Experience in England

Puchacz is no stranger to England. In spring 2025 he was on loan at Plymouth Argyle, who play in the Championship, the second tier of English football. He has also played in the Bundesliga, the 2. Bundesliga, the Turkish league and Poland's Ekstraklasa.

What this means for you

For now this is mainly a point of interest for fans: Puchacz has not announced any transfer, and his comment does not mean he will change clubs. If he ever does move to English football, supporters in the UK could watch another Poland international in local stadiums, but for the moment that is only the player's dream scenario.
