Fran Franczak called up to Poland U18 squad

We are delighted to confirm that talented youngster Fran Franczak has earned a call-up to Poland’s under-18 national team.

Fran is set to join up with the squad for a training camp and friendly tournament in Croatia from September 4-10. Games are planned against the hosts, the United Arab Emirates U20 and South Korea.

The youth academy graduate, who turned 17 last week, was born in Limanowa and grew up in Laskowa before moving to Perthshire at the age of five.

On his call-up to the squad, Fran said: “It means a lot to me and it is a dream to play for the national team. The first thing I did was phone my mum and dad – they are very proud of me.

“It will be a very good experience and I’ll be playing with new players and getting to find out different styles. That can only be good for me.

“The past year has gone well for me and I feel I am making the right steps.”
