Lewandowski refused to play for the Polish national team. |
In a shocking statement posted on social media, the 36-year-old striker asserted that he would not play for the Polish national team until Probierz was sacked, highlighting his serious lack of confidence in the current coaching staff.
Lewandowski wrote: "Given the circumstances and my loss of faith in the Polish national team coach, I have decided not to join the national team until Probierz is no longer the coach. I hope that I can still contribute to the greatest fans in the world ."
This decision immediately sparked a wave of outrage in Polish public opinion and the football world. Fans were also divided, with some condemning Lewandowski for what they considered an abandonment of his national team duties, while others felt he had been treated disrespectfully, especially since the captain's armband was given to Piotr Zielinski, the Inter Milan midfielder.
Lewandowski's stature in the history of Polish football is undeniable. Since making his debut for the Polish national team in 2008, he has played 158 times and scored 85 goals. At club level, Lewandowski conquered the Bundesliga with Borussia Dortmund and Bayern Munich, won the Champions League in 2020, before continuing his success in La Liga with Barcelona.
Lewy's retirement announcement could significantly impact Poland's strength. Coach Probierz, who took over the team two years ago, is under immense pressure from the public. A section of fans has openly demanded that the Polish Football Federation reconsider his future in order to "keep" Lewandowski.
