It's clearly a different case compared to the earlier transfers of Ilkay Gundogan, Mats Hummels and Henrikh Mkhitaryan, seeing as the 30-year-old Poland international didn't feature in head coach Thomas Tuchel's plans for next season, but the loss of Kuba, as fans lovingly call him, will still be felt.
