'Big step'
Former Polish Under-21 international Kieszek has arrived from KSP Polonia Warszawa after agreeing a three-year deal with an extension option. "Being here is a big step for me and my career," said the 23-year-old, who spent last season on loan at Egaleo FC in Greece. "I am going to fight to be first choice. I'm young and it won't be easy, but I have faith in myself."
Reinforcements
The 26-year-old Bruno Tiago, meanwhile, has secured a four-year contract after leaving Gil Vicente FC. "I have fulfilled a dream," he said. "This is the greatest challenge of my career." Kieszek and Tiago join Roberto Brum among Braga's newcomers. The Brazilian midfielder, who turns 29 next month, was lured from Portuguese Liga rivals A. Académica de Coimbra, where he had been plying his trade since 2004/05, by the prospect of European football.
