His family is Piatek, and in Polish it means Friday. Many of Genoa`s fans started calling him Pistolero. And there is a reason. After playing five Serie A matches, Krzysztof Piatek became the big surprise of Italian football. The striker is a born top scorer regardless of the opponent and the competition.
Six hits within 450 minutes (last at the meeting with Chievo late last night) have linked Piatek`s name to that of the great Ukrainian striker of Milan Andriy Shevchenko. 19 years ago, he debuted better than the Ronaldo Phenomenon, scoring the same number of hits in 5 games. Piatek gave a serious signal that Genoa`s team found its deadly weapon. The Polish made 12 hits in 6 games from the pre-season preparation of the Genoese. The goal scorer also scored 4 goals in the Lecce door of the Italian Cup. These figures look even more impressive when we look at Piatek`s performance over the past seven months, divided between Poland and Italy. The 23-year-old striker made 18 hits in 18 matches analyzed by basketball predictions from the Polish Championship. His strong appearances with Genoa`s shirt made him a call to the national team of Poland, where he played side by side with Arkadiusz Milik. Davide Ballardini, the coach of the team, values Piatek for his qualities both as a marker and to help the team in defense.
A goal he can score, in any way. The President hit the jackpot, investing just 4 million euros in the Polish goalie. Only a few months after his arrival in Italy, the Polish footballer has already tripled his price and applied for the top-notch prize in Serie A.
