It is officially a loan move with option to buy, but Samp retain a counter-option to bring him back in future.

Kownacki was picked up from Lech Poznan in the summer of 2017 for €4m.

He had fallen out of favour in recent weeks, but still scored two goals and provided one assist in 16 competitive games this season.
