He plays for a top club, Touchstone ignores him. “He gave it up for personality reasons”
Despite the appointment of four goalkeepers and an emergency substitution, Michał Probierz omitted Kamil Grabara again. According to the former representative, there are no sports issues behind the decision.
Michał Probierz had to make small changes in the squad just before the beginning of the training camp. Due to injuries, Bartłomiej Drągowski (Panathinaikos AO), Kacper Kozłowski (Gaziantep FK) and Mateusz Skrzypczak (Jagiellonia Białystok) were unavailable. The coach “called” only one player – goalkeeper Kacper Trelowski from Raków Częstochowa.
The former Polish representative criticizes the absence of Kamil Grabara in Probierz’s team
Trelowski is an absolute debutant in the senior team. It is difficult to suspect that he would play in any of the Nations League matches. He will probably help the team during training. The selected goalkeepers also include Marcin Bułka, Łukasz Skorupski and Bartosz Mrozek. Once again, Kamil Grabara was missing. The VfL Wolfsburg goalkeeper was left out again, which didn’t go unnoticed by the fans.
Experts and former players also draw attention to the player’s absence. In an interview with TVP Sport, Marek Koźmiński commented on the matter. The former Polish representative directly stated that Grabara’s lack of selection was not due to his sporting form, but rather his off-field character. The goalkeeper has been known for his sharp tongue over the years, but as he revealed in an interview with “Kanał Sportowy”. “Saying that Grabara doesn’t agree with being number 2-3 in the national team is blatant bullshit.”
– Without a doubt, his absence is due to off-field issues. I don’t understand the argument that someone may have too arrogant character. Grabara would make a difference in the national team, but in a positive sense of the word. The coach gave up on him for personality reasons, but this is a bad approach. The fact that someone is ambitious and argues loudly is not a disadvantage, but quite the opposite. A goalkeeper must be confident. These standards are simply incomprehensible and I do not approve of them, said Koźmiński.
Kamil Grabara is waiting for more matches in the national team
Kamil Grabara has played one match for the Polish national team so far. He was part of the squad at the 2022 World Cup.
