In the year 2023, a change is afoot in Polish soccer. Napoli's central midfielder Schliński was crowned Footballer of the Year, breaking Barcelona star Robert Lewandowski's four-year monopoly on the honor. 29-year-old Schliński, a late-blooming star who is set to become a free agent when his contract expires this summer, will undoubtedly be the focus of a major competition for his future.
Looking back at the past season, Schilenski made 48 appearances in all competitions for Napoli, contributing 7 goals and 11 assists, and was a key figure in the team's Serie A title win. And this season, he continues to perform at a high level. Meanwhile, Robert Livendowski's form has dipped, with his goal tally dropping dramatically. The fact that Schliński was crowned Poland's Footballer of the Year is not only a recognition of his career, but also the first time in his playing career that he has won such an award, which is very meaningful.
