Piotr Zelinsky criticized again. “It seems like my head is somewhere else.”

Piotr Zielinski was in Napoli’s starting lineup for the 1-1 draw in the 26th round of Serie A with Cagliari. The Pole left the field in the 79th minute and did not receive good reviews for his performance. It is indicative that from September 30, 2023, the midfielder is waiting for a goal or assist. Last season he taught us to play well, but that is no longer the case, although it is likely due to off-field factors due to the change of team.

Criticism from Italian media

Traditionally, the Italian media took a close look at the performance of the Napoli players. On a scale of 1 to 10, Zielinski was most often rated a “5” or “6”, which suggested an average performance. In brief reports, journalists expressed their opinion about the Pole’s attitude.

“He’s playing decently, but it looks like he’s doing his homework. “More is expected from players of his type on the pitch,” we read on the Italian website Eurosport, which gave Zielinski a “6”.

A website closely associated with the reigning Italian champions used slightly harsher words. They suggested that Zielinski does not look like a football player who thinks about what is happening on the field now.

“It seems he is somewhere else. Almost invisible,” writes Calcionapoli1926.it, giving the midfielder a “5”.

He will go to Inter

Piotr Zielinski has been playing for Napoli since 2016, but from July he will become a player for Inter Milan. The last few months have not been the best for the Pole in terms of cooperation with the Naples authorities. As a result, he was excluded from the Champions League and attention was focused on other players. Meanwhile, last season Zielinski made a big contribution to the Italian championship won by the team from Naples. But apparently it’s time to write a new chapter.
