The lineup announced by Jerzy Brzęczek on Tuesday includes high-performing strikers Robert Lewandowski, Krzysztof Piątek and Arkadiusz Milik.

Young guns include Sebastian Szymański, Dawid Kownacki and Robert Gumny, all of whom are gearing up to take part in the European Under-21 Championship kicking off in Italy and San Marino in mid-June.

Poland will play North Macedonia in a Euro 2020 qualifier in Skopje on June 7.

Three days later the Poles will take on Israel in their next qualifying fixture in Warsaw.

Poland on March 21 opened their Euro 2020 qualifying campaign with a 1-0 away win against Austria. The Polish team three days later beat Latvia 2-0 in their second Euro 2020 qualifier at the National Stadium in Warsaw.

Poland’s qualifying Group G also includes Slovenia.

Fifty-five European teams were in December drawn into a total of 10 qualifying groups, five groups of five teams and five six-team groups.

The Euro 2020 qualifiers will be played between March and November, with the top two teams from each group qualifying directly for the championships.

The Euro 2020 tournament will be held from June 12 to July 12, 2020 in 12 cities around Europe, with the final played at London's Wembley Stadium.

Brzęczek took over as Poland manager last summer after the national squad’s early exit from the World Cup in Russia.
