Michał Probierz will call the former coach. I need his help
Michał Probierz advanced with the Polish national team to Euro 2024 and has already announced preparations for this tournament. The coach admitted that he would need help from one of his predecessors.
The Polish national team won the final of the play-offs against Wales and advanced to Euro 2024. Much of this was due to Wojciech Szczęsny, who saved the decisive penalty kick by Daniel James. Thanks to this, our players continued their 16-year-long series of qualifications for the Old Continent Championships. Let us recall that the Polish national team took part in this championship for the first time in 2008. Since then, our “Eagles” have participated in the finals every time. There are only eight such federations. This group also included France, Germany, Croatia, Spain, Portugal, Italy and the Czech Republic.
The Polish delegation will be looking for a base for Euro 2024
After qualifying for Euro 2024, matchyki.pl was one of the first to report that the Polish national team's base for the tournament held in Germany would be either Potsdam or Bremen. “Reservations in both resorts are valid until April 5 – this is the deadline by which the final decision must be made. This will probably come down on April 3 or 4,” the journalists of this website informed.
On Thursday, March 28, coach Michał Probierz was Tomasz Włodarczyk's guest in the “Let's talk about ball Extra” program. During the interview, the coach revealed that next week they would choose the place where the Polish national team would finally settle. – From Tuesday we will fly to Germany to choose a base and then we will make a decision – he said.
Michał Probierz will need the help of his predecessor
Michał Probierz has been the coach of the Polish national team for a relatively short time – on September 20, 2023, he replaced Fernando Santos, who was unable to manage the team in the qualifying rounds, which is why we finished third behind Albania and the Czech Republic. This means that Euro 2024 will be the first big event in the coach's career. Therefore, the 51-year-old announced that he would seek information from people who had the opportunity to go to such an event.
– I'm going to call coach Nawałka and talk to him about how he sees it. We talked to the staff, to people who were there (at the tournaments), and there is no point in getting smart about it. I don't know because I haven't been to such an event and it's better to take the experiences of people who have already been there – he said.
The Poles' rivals at Euro 2024 will be the Netherlands, Austria and France. Without a doubt, group D is one of the most interesting at this championship. The championship will start on June 14, 2024 and will last exactly one month. Our rivals at the stadium in Hamburg will be the Dutch (June 16, 3:00 p.m.). Then we will try our hand at Austria in Berlin (June 21, 6 p.m.). At the end of the group phase, we will face France in Dortmund (June 25, 6:00 p.m.).
