We are to know the name of the new selector by January 19. Everything indicates that it will not be Fabio Cannavaro, with whom he met on Saturday. As admitted by the president of the Polish Football Association in the Viaplay studio, there are still talks with several candidates ahead of him, among them there will be, among others former coach of the Polish national team,.
Who and on what terms should take over our staff? Should it be a Polish or a foreign trainer? Should his contract be valid only for play-offs with an option to extend it in case of promotion to the World Cup, or should the contract be signed immediately for two years? These are the questions that we will know the answer to in the coming days.
In an interview with the portal, the former goalkeeper of the Polish national team, Jerzy Dudek, answered some of the questions. – Most fans would like him to be a coach by the end of the qualifying round. However, I would look for a lifeguard for March. After losing play-offs, it would be difficult for such a coach to continue in the qualifying round of the European Championship – he said.
And he added: – You have to remember that we have a chance of promotion. This may be the last chance for this generation to play in the World Cup, so it should also be an additional stimulus for the boys.
Dudek commented on the selection of the coach
How did Dudek react to the fact that one of the Polish coaches could become the manager? – There are not many coaches from Poland who could work at such a high level. Of course, the candidate is Adam Nawałka. If not, the market is very narrow. Maciek Skorża, who has international experience, has already worked with the staff, has a bit of refinement, would be a nice option for sure, he does not “cook” quickly. It seems that he has grown up in this profession. Of course, the problem is that he has an important contract in Poznań and Lech will not let him go soon – he said.
And he concluded: – There is a group of professionals, for example Marek Papszun is a really good coach. It’s just that he lacks international experience. It is difficult to indicate one that would give a guarantee. It will be a really difficult choice for Cezary Kulesza, the more so that he himself will have to explain himself, he will be burdened with the consequences.
In the play-off match for the World Cup in Qatar, Poland will play against Russia. The meeting will be held on March 24 in Moscow. If our team wins this game, they will face the winner of the Sweden – Czech Republic pair at home in the decisive match.
