Poland boss backs Pietuszewski: “This is the start of a fantastic career” | OneFootball

Jan Urban, the coach of Poland, has called up Oskar Pietuszewski, a 17-year-old winger from FC Porto, for the first time. In an interview with 'Kanal Sportowy', the Polish coach explained the decision to include the young player in a group that also features Bednarek and Kiwior.

“Besides what he did at Jagiellonia and during his training, he transferred to a major foreign club and is showing that he can establish himself there. This gave me additional reasons to call him up,” explained Jan Urban. “For me, this is still the beginning of a fantastic career for Oskar, and he has had a very good start,” he added.

Poland will face Albania on the 26th of this month, in the first round of the European playoff qualification for next summer's World Cup. If they advance, they will then face Ukraine or Sweden, and in that match, the winner will secure a spot in the World Cup.
