Oskar Pietuszewski's debut in the Poland national team's call-up marks a special moment in the young midfielder's career. The FC Porto winger, just 17 years old, could become the sixth youngest Polish player ever to represent the national team, in a context that has sparked curiosity and excitement among fans and coaches. Jan Urban, the Polish coach, highlighted the serenity and maturity of the new international: "I didn't go to see him, I didn't talk to him or call him. I only met him here, at the camp. He seems to be the same as he is on the field. Confident and behaving normally. You can see that he is happy with what is happening around him. It's noticeable in his behavior." The coach also compared Pietuszewski to another young talent, Filip Rózga, a left midfielder from Sturm Graz, who is also among the call-ups: "When we see Filip Rózga and Oskar Pietuszewski from behind, you can't tell who is who. They have worked well together, despite being players with similar characteristics who can play in the same position. I'm curious to see how they will perform in the national team." Regarding the possibility of Pietuszewski starting against Albania, the coach preferred to keep the suspense: "We have already come to a conclusion, but you will only know tomorrow. If he has to be a starter, he will be; if he has to be a substitute and come on, he will be. We'll see." Poland faces Albania this Thursday in the first playoff for qualification for the 2026 World Cup. The winner of the match will face Ukraine or Sweden next Tuesday.
