In his Telegram channel, journalist Piotr Slonka spoke about the game of 21-year-old Lechia Gdańsk midfielder Maksim Hlan.
"Today I saw Maxim Hlan play for Lechia Gdańsk for the first time at the stadium. He is just a magician! He is the best player in the first league. I have seen many players at the stadium in Bielsko: Extra class, U-20 World Cup. But a player with such technique has probably never been here before. Dribbling, speed, manoeuvrability. Maksym's level is already above the first league and, perhaps, even higher than the Extra Class.
We need a few more calm steps forward, and Ukraine will have the next Yarmolenko. Maksym reminds me of Andriy Yarmolenko in his game. He is a player for whom people come to stadiums. In addition to his excellent technique, Maksym has speed and great vision. He sees a lot and his behaviour guides the actions of the whole team.
In addition to being a great player, he is also a very positive and open-minded person. The club's fans and journalists like him - for them he is a star, a treasure. Max already communicates and jokes with everyone in Polish, which is also worth noting. He is star material, that's for sure. I only hope he will be selected for the Olympic team, it would be a shame and stupidity if a player of his quality did not go to Paris," the journalist wrote.
