Yarek Gasiorowski

Early life Gasiorowski was born in Spain to a Polish father and a Spanish mother. His name is a Spanish adaptation of Polish name Jarek, as the first letter is replaced with Y to keep Polish ([]) instead of Spanish pronunciation ([]).

International career Gasiorowski has dual citizenship (Spain and Poland) and has received invitations to both the Spain U17s and the Poland U17s. Afterwards, Gąsiorowski chose to play for Spain (his lack of knowledge of Polish was among the reasons).

Style of play Formerly a full-back, Gasiorowski is a centre-back that describes himself as a player who likes to "bring the ball out from the back, tends to win aerial challenges, likes to be physical when needed and always close to opposition forwards.” He is also a long throw specialist.
