An exchange of names of potential replacements for Czesław Mikhnevich in the Polish national team has begun. There is one candidate in the group mentioned by the media, about whom Mateusz Borek has serious doubts.
On December 12, the Polish Football Association issued a statement on the further cooperation of Czesław Mikhnevich with the Byala-Chervony team. It shows that his contract, which is valid until December 31, 2022, has not been extended, and the fate of the coach has not been decided at all. Nevertheless, the names of coaches are beginning to appear in the media, who could take over the legacy in the team after the current coach. Mateusz Borek does not like one of the candidates.
PZPN is looking for a successor to Cheslav Mikhnevich
According to the latest reports, the contacts for replacing Cheslav Mikhnevich as a coach were to be established by Cesariy Kulesha himself. The President of the PZPN is now at the stage of inquiry, getting acquainted with the available options. One definitely fell off. The head of our federation offered Maciej Skorzha to lead the adult team, but he refused. Cause? He recently traveled to Japan to coach the J-League Urawa Reds. The coach preferred to show loyalty to employers.
Another name that appears in the media is Andriy Shevchenko. The Ukrainian was linked to the Polish national team even before Cheslav Mikhnevich took over the reins. At the time, PZPN and the coach reportedly did not get along, mainly due to financial reasons.
Mateusz Borek told who should not work in the Polish national team
Now this topic is back on the wallpaper, although Mateusz Borek believes that this is wrong. According to him, you should not take a coach who discredited himself by heading Genoa into the team of white-reds. According to the journalist, the Seva phenomenon is largely due to the knowledge and skills of his assistants.
Also, Borek doesn’t like the context Kulesha has to follow. “Today it would be largely a political choice. By principle, Poland helps Ukraine. I don’t think it’s a good idea,” summed up the commentator of the Power of Football program on the Sport TV channel.
