From the World Cup in Russia to the Polonia speedway car park! [ZDJĘCIA]

Dawid Kownacki, 21, striker of the Italian Sampdoria of Genoa, appeared last Sunday under the colors of the team of speedway League II TŻ Ostrovia Ostrów Wielopolski.

– I confess that when I saw him in Bydgoszcz, I was a little surprised – said the president of the Ostrowski club, Radosław Strzelczyk. – I even joked that it is unfortunate that he came back so quickly from Russia.

The mere presence in the machine park was not surprising, however, because David has been part of our team for two years. When he was still playing in Lech Poznań, he even happened that after his team's matches he did not come back with a club bus, he only went by private car for the games of our team.

Kownacki helped a friend Kamil Brzozowski during the match in Bydgoszcz. The Ostrów team won with Polonia 55:34, and the 31-year-old scored 6 points (3, 3, d, -); a defect happened to him while running.

As "Fakt" says, "Dawid Kownacki loves the speedway, because he was born in Gorzów and went to the Steel Games from an early age." His passion for the fast track was when he became a friend of Brzozowski four years ago … During the Sunday match in Bydgoszcz, Kownacki ran with a cooler, changed the bike's settings, and was also responsible for fuel or change the oil.
