Polynomial decomposition expresses a polynomial f as the functional composition $$f=g\circ h$$
f

∘
h
of lower degree polynomials g and h, and has various applications. In this paper, we will show that for a minimal, non-degenerate, simple, binary, linearly recurrent sequence $$(G_n(x))_{n=0}^\infty $$
(

, then apart from some exceptional situations that have to be taken into account, the degree of g is bounded by a constant independent of n. We will build on a general but conditional result of this type that already exists in the literature. We will then present one Diophantine application of the main result.
