Crisis Deepens at Legia Warszawa Under Interim Coach Iñaki Astiz

Warsaw, Poland — Legia Warszawa’s struggles show no sign of easing as interim coach Iñaki Astiz continues to search for his first Ekstraklasa victory since taking charge in late September. The club’s form has deteriorated sharply following the departure of Edward Iordănescu, leaving fans and management increasingly concerned about the direction of the team.

Winless Run in Ekstraklasa

Astiz’s tenure has been marked by frustration, with Legia unable to secure three points in domestic competition for over two months. The lack of victories has seen the team slide down the Ekstraklasa table, raising questions about their ability to challenge for European qualification spots.

Mixed Fortunes in Europe

While Legia managed a morale-boosting Conference League win against Shakhtar Donetsk, that remains their only success on the continental stage. Subsequent defeats have highlighted defensive frailties and a lack of cutting edge in attack, compounding the sense of crisis around the club.

Growing Pressure

Supporters have voiced their disappointment, with calls for decisive action from club president Dariusz Mioduski. Rumors continue to swirl about potential managerial replacements, including former Raków Częstochowa boss Marek Papszun, who is seen as a candidate to stabilize the squad.

What’s Next?

With fixtures piling up and confidence at a low ebb, Astiz faces a daunting challenge to reverse Legia’s fortunes. Unless results improve quickly, the club may be forced into another managerial change to salvage their season.
