Polish National Team Stirrings: Lewandowski Bids Temporary Farewell
- Polish soccer star Robert Lewandowski announces his tentative resignation
Football sensation Robert Lewandowski is taking a break from the Polish national team, placing immense pressure on the federation. In a passionate post on X in Polish, he expressed, "Given the circumstances and the loss of trust in the Polish national team coach, I have decided to suspend my activity in the Polish national team as long as he remains in office."
This temporary retirement is aimed at a possible return, "for the best fans in the world" in the future. The esteemed forward, who previously graced Borussia Dortmund and FC Bayern Munich, had declined participation in the current qualifying window due to a grueling season with FC Barcelona.
Zielinski Steps Up:
Before Lewandowski's announcement, national coach Probierz revealed a surprising transition: Piotr Zielinski would be the future captain of the team. The federation released a statement, noting, "The coach informed Robert Lewandowski, the entire team, and the coaching staff personally about his decision."
Lewandowski, who has sported the colors of Poland in 158 games and netted 85 goals, aspires to lead his nation to the 2026 World Cup in the USA, Mexico, and Canada. The heat on Probierz may intensify following Lewandowski's social media post, as he is regarded as a national hero at home.
