Pietuszewski could get the call-up for the 2026 World Cup play-offs | OneFootball

Jan Urban, the coach of Poland, acknowledged the possibility of calling up the young FC Porto winger, Oskar Pietuszewski, 17 years old, for the 2026 World Cup qualifying playoffs.

The coach clarified, however, that the player’s continued presence in the Under-21 team should also be considered.

“In all my conversations with journalists, Pietuszewski’s name comes up. I understand that your job is to ask, but I still can’t say anything. We are monitoring Pietuszewski’s progress, just like any other candidate for the national team. Maybe we’ll consider that it’s worth calling him up for the playoffs, but it’s just as likely that he’ll continue playing with the youth team. As I’ve said before, the situation in football changes quickly,” he told the daily sport.pl.

Since transferring from Jagiellonia Bialystok to FC Porto during the winter transfer window, Pietuszewski already has one goal and one assist in seven matches.
