Pietuszewski named in Poland’s preliminary squad | OneFootball

According to Portal dos Dragões, Oskar Pietuszewski is included in a preliminary call-up for Poland’s senior national team, which will compete in the World Cup qualification play-offs. FC Porto has already been officially informed, as is customary in these situations, and if the winger does not get the chance to make his debut for the senior team, it is certain that he will represent the under-21 national team at the end of the month, in matches for the European Championship qualifiers in that category.

The possible inclusion of the young Porto player is dominating the news in his country, driven by his three goals and one assist for the Dragons, and the national coach has once again tried to temper expectations. “I’m the first to say that Oskar is playing very well. But we’re getting too excited. In his first game for FC Porto, he won a penalty and everyone was like: ‘Wow!’ No, he needs to do a bit more. He also makes mistakes. Maybe we’ll decide that we need Oskar. We’ll keep an eye on him and see if we need him or someone more experienced, who can contribute more,” he said on the Turbokozak program on Canal+. It should be noted that the announcement of Poland’s squad is scheduled for Friday.

By delighting the blue and white fans, Oskar scored his third goal in the league against Moreirense, becoming the third youngest ever to achieve this record in Portugal, at 17 years and nine months. Only Rodrigo Mora, who achieved the feat at 17 years and seven months, and Cristiano Ronaldo, then a Sporting player in the 2002/03 season, at 17 years and eight months, were younger.
