Legia Warszawa: Squad Notes and Injury Update Ahead of Upcoming Fixtures
Legia Warszawa continue preparations for their next round of matches with a largely stable lineup but lingering concerns over key absences. The club’s most recent Ekstraklasa outing — a narrow defeat to Piast Gliwice — offered a clear picture of manager choices and the current depth available.
Starting XI vs Piast Gliwice
Legia lined up with a familiar core, featuring a blend of experience and emerging talent. The last starting XI included:
- Kacper Tobiasz
- Steve Kapuadi Burch
- Patryk Piątkowski
- Arreiol
- Bartłomiej Augustyniak
- Tigran Bichakhchyan
- Jan Urbański
- Paweł Kun
- Paweł Wszołek
- Marc Gual Rajović
- Qëndrim Krasniqi
The lineup reflected Legia’s continued emphasis on maintaining structure in midfield while relying on wide play and transitional speed to generate chances.
Injury Situation
Two players remain unavailable and continue to shape the matchday selection picture:
- Juergen Elitim — sidelined with an unspecified issue, with no clear timetable for return.
- Jean‑Pierre Nsamé — recovering from an Achilles problem, keeping him out of competitive action.
Both absences limit Legia’s rotational options, particularly in midfield creativity and forward depth.
Looking Ahead
With domestic and European fixtures approaching, Legia will be hoping for stability in performance and positive news from the medical staff. The coaching team faces the challenge of balancing consistency with the need to adapt, especially with two influential squad members still unavailable.
