PZPN scout weights in on Polish John Terry
Polish Football Federation main scout Maciej Chorazyk believes 16-year old defender Gracjan Horoszkiewicz will be the next "Polish John Terry".
"He is a player that will sooner than later debut in the German Bundesliga and the Polish national team," believes Chorazyk. "Frank Smuda has already asked about him. He is going to be our Polish hit."
According to Chorazyk, Horoszkiewicz is the best player for the Polish Under-17 national team. The central defender has made more than 30 appearances in the Polish youth systems.
Horoszkiewicz joined Hertha Berlin during the summer and signed a three-year contract. He currenlty plays for the Hertha Berlin U-23 team after starting with the U-19 team.

ReplyDeleteWho would you guys consider the polish "Wayne Bridge"?
ReplyDeleteSooo who's the Polish Wanye Rooyne?? Patryk Małecki?? lol!!
ReplyDeleteFor what it's worth, Dawid Janczyk was the "polish rooney" lol
ReplyDeleteI've seen so many young Polish players compared to Messi, Zidane, Rooney and a couple years later, no one even remembers their name! These comparisons are pointless and reek of desperation.
ReplyDeleteHmmm.. in the Polish article,

Horoszkiewicz claims: "Na początku grałem w zespole do lat 19, ale szybko przenieśli mnie do drużyny U-23, która jest zapleczem pierwszego zespołu. Wszyscy są tu ze mnie bardzo zadowoleni, więc mam nadzieję, że niedługo zadebiutuję w Bundeslidze."
For those who can't read Polish, he says he was quickly shifted to the U23 team. But according to transfermarkt, he was still playing in the U19 team a couple weeks ago.

The site indicates he has played only three U19 matches and no U23 matches so let's not get too excited just yet.
