Poland boss Czesław Michniewicz has moved to explain why Mateusz Klich was left out of his squad for the World Cup. Klich was involved in Michniewicz’s provisional squad, but the Leeds United man failed to make the final cut as the national manager opted for other options.
The news will have come as a huge blow for the midfielder, who started the campaign with the target of nailing down his spot on the plane to Qatar. Klich has won 41 caps for Poland, with his last coming in the Nations League loss to the Netherlands in September.
Unfortunately, though, the 32-year-old has struggled for minutes in a Leeds shirt under Jesse Marsch and as it stands, he hasn’t started a single Premier League game this season. That lack of game time won’t have helped his chances, that is for certain.
