Robert Lewandowski in action during an international friendly match
Robert Lewandowski and Wojciech Szczesny will lead Poland's World Cup campaign after being included as expected in the final 23-man squad. Coach Adam Nawalka named 35 players in his preliminary squad for the tournament in Russia, and managed to whittle it down before FIFA's deadline on Monday.
Poland are preparing for their first World Cup appearance since 2006, meaning Lewandowski and Szczesny will be making their debuts.
Napoli forward Arkadiusz Milik, Monaco defender Kamil Glik, and veteran midfielder Jakub Blaszczykowski are also in the squad.
Poland have pre-tournament friendlies with Chile on Friday and Lithuania four days later.
At the World Cup, Poland play Senegal, Colombia and Japan in Group H.
