I'm here to help Al Duhail win titles, says Polish striker Piatek
Tribune News Network Doha Al Duhail's new Polish striker Krzysztof Piatek has expressed his delight at joining the Red Knights and working with teammates to help the team win titles. Speaking to the club's website, Piatek said, 'I think the atmosphere is different between Europe and the Gulf, but I'm here. I have complete confidence in the coach, the project, and the club's ambitions. 'I believe we have a lot to offer in the coming years. I have a positive feeling towards the club and the country of Qatar. Despite the hot weather compared to Europe, I'm happy to be here.' The 30-year-old, who also represents his national team, added: 'From my first day with the team, I felt a positive feeling towards my teammates. We talk a lot, and everyone is great to deal with here, and that's the most important thing. 'I think we need to get to know each other well, and we have enough time. Our training camp in the Netherlands helped us a lot.' He continued: 'I've been in touch with some players who have played here in Qatar. As you know, I came here to help the team, score goals, and win titles, and to play high-quality football. 'I hope my teammates will help me with that. I will create opportunities and score goals—that's my playing style, and that's what I hope to do this season with the team as well.' Piątek went on to say: 'I moved here from the Turkish league. My team had high-level strikers, and despite that, I did a great job, and I hope to repeat that with Al Duhail because I have great confidence in my abilities and what I can offer the team.I don't feel any pressure, but we know very well that we can offer something to the club.' About the team's preparations for the new season ahead, he said, 'Our focus is complete for the start of the official matches. Everyone will give 100% of their effort because we want to play and be in the AFC Champions League Elite. 'We have good, high-quality players, our team is technically strong, and we have enough players, and I am confident that we will be able to offer great things this season. 'We must start with small steps first in our journey. 'The first step is to play and win the AFC Champions League Elite. 'We are good at playing abroad, and we have a new coach who can deal with the team ambitions well and add to the team in order to play and perform better. 'As professional players, we must push the local players to have a strong season, just as you find in the strong European leagues and for a strong league everywhere, not just in Asia.'
