According to German outlet Bild, Krzysztof Piatek’s wife stopped the Polish striker from joining Tottenham Hotspur last month. Paulina Procyk, a lawyer, reportedly wanted to be closer to their Poland home, with a transfer to Herta Berlin providing them with that option. However, she has come out to deny the reports, claiming she had no hand in Piatek’s decision to snub Tottenham for the Bundesliga side. Procyk wrote on her Instagram story:
“I don’t know where such information came from really and how it got to the press.
“Yes, my husband holds my opinion in high regard, but I have never picked a club for him based on which city or climate I liked and I will never try to do so.
