Lewandowski, 36, has hit 85 goals in 158 internationals.

He posted on social media: “Considering the circumstances and the loss of trust in the coach of the Polish National Team, I decided to resign from playing in the Polish National Team until he is the coach.

“I hope that I will be able to play for the best fans in the world.”

Despite his iconic status in his home country, Polish fans have criticised Lewandowski for missing recent matches.

Probierz then replaced him as skipper with Inter Milan midfielder Piotr Zielinski.
