Manager Barry Robson said: "I am delighted to welcome Richard to Pittodrie. It’s no secret that we’ve been looking to strengthen our defensive options, particularly on the left side.

“We’ve tracked Richard for some time but weren’t sure if we were going to be able to make a deal happen, so I am delighted we have been able to get It over the line with Górnik.
“He is a strong competitor and demonstrated his leadership qualities having been a captain in the past. He is predominantly a left-centre back and equally comfortable in a back 3 or back 4.
"His quality on the ball and running capacity means he’s well suited for how we want to play, and he’ll be a strong addition for the club.”
