Nicola Zalewski owes a lot to Jose Mourinho. The Portuguese saw potential in him and was not afraid to bet on him. In May 2021, he made his first-team debut for AS Roma in a Conference League match against Manchester United. Since then, he regularly plays in the starting lineup (a total of 42 games).
Jordan Majchrzak included in the first team by Mourinho
As it turns out, Zalewski is not the only Pole promoted by Mourinho. “Corriere dello Sport” reported that Jordan Majchrzak was included in the training of the first team. The striker has been training under the supervision of the Portuguese since the new year, and journalists report that despite his little experience (only three matches in Roma’s youth team), the coach wants to check the 18-year-old.
Majchrzak is currently on loan from Legia Warsaw until the end of the season. The Italians will decide whether he will stay at the club in the summer. Majchrzak is a student of Warta Zawiercie, from which he went to Rozwoju Katowice. In 2020, he moved to Legia Warszawa, where he first played in junior teams, and later in the reserves. Last season he played a total of 31 matches, scoring 10 goals.
Jose Mouriniho once again proves that he likes to give young players a chance. In addition to Zalewski, he regularly lets on the pitch, among others, 20-year-old Edoardo Bove and 19-year-old Cristian Volpato. Both have repaid the coach’s trust and have already scored three goals in Serie A.
