Poland Portraits - 2018 FIFA World Cup Russia
Jakub Blaszczykowski

The 32-year-old midfielder is the 3rd most capped player for Poland with 99 appearances, just 3 shy of a record 102 caps, which he will be looking to surpass at this summer's mega event. He made his debut for the national side way back in 2006 and has been an important part of the Polish team ever since.

Currently playing for German side VFL Wolfsburg, he was a part of Borussia Dortmund from 2007 to 2016 winning 2 Bundesliga titles, 1 DFB Pokal, 2 DFL Supercups and reached the 2012-13 Champions League final. Playing in the national colours, he has found the net 20 times and is the backbone of Polish midfield.

The midfielder is known for strong tackling and is effective in holding the ball in the midfield area. He plays a vital role in initiating attacks through his passes and is also reliable in the defence when required.

He will be entering the 2018 FIFA World Cup as the most experienced Polish player and will look to use this experience to take his side on a successful World Cup campaign.
