Piotr Zielinski

Zielinski : MONEY LOVE LIFE TATTOO CAR HOUSE

Born in Ząbkowice Śląskie, Poland in 1994, this Polish midfielder has spent more time in Italy as a footballer than he has in his native Poland. He joined Udinese's youth team in 2011. It is not very common for youngsters to move abroad when they're from Europe. But considering how the facilities in Italy are far superior to those in Poland, it shouldn't come as a surprise to us. He spent the formative years of footballing journey with Orzeł Ząbkowice Śląskie and Zagłębie Lubin. His decision making has to be questioned here because he was wanted by some top teams, including Liverpool. He also trialed with a couple of Dutch teams but decided to stay in Poland before Udinese knocked on his doors. He'd graduate to become a senior with the Udine based club, but he'd spend time away from them with Empoli for two seasons after opportunities were sparse. He proved himself with them, which resulted in Napoli showing interest, and finally buying him in 2016. He has been with them since. Usually deployed as a central midfielder, he can also play on the left side of midfield and even in an attacking midfield position from time to time. As a Polish national, he plays for their national team. He has also competed with them in practically every youth level from Under-15 onwards.
