Poland manager Michal Probierz has resigned four days after striker Robert Lewandowski announced he would no longer play for his country under him.

Probierz, 52, who was under contract until 2026 after replacing Fernando Santos in the role in September 2023, relieved Lewandowski of the team captaincy earlier this week, replacing him with Inter Milan midfielder Piotr Zielinski.
