Goalkeeper Thomas Kaminski signed at Kenilworth Road from Blackburn Rovers for an undisclosed fee in August 2023.
Thomas’ career began in the youth ranks at Gent in his native Belgium, but his first taste of first team football came with Germinal Beerschot in the top-flight, making 38 appearances before one season at OH Leuven in 2011/12.
In 2012, the goalkeeper joined Belgian giants Anderlecht and was part of the squad that won two Belgian league titles, in 2013 and 2014, and three Super Cups in a row between 2012 and 2014 – and he also made his debut in the Champions League in 2013/14.
Thomas signed for Kortrijk for three seasons before enjoying two seasons with Gent, finishing runners-up to champions Club Brugge in 2019/20 – a season in which he featured in their Europa League campaign where they reached the knockout stages.
In 2020, Kaminski signed for Blackburn Rovers where he quickly became a fans’ favourite and was named Player of the Year at the end of his debut season in English football.
The shot-stopper made his first national appearance against the Republic of Ireland coming off the bench and was part of the Belgium squad at EURO 2020 and 2024.
He played in all of our Premier League fixtures in his debut season, making the second most amount of saves across the whole top-flight
