Pajor’s journey to world’s most prolific striker

Getty Images

As the second-lowest ranked team at Euro 2025, not many people would give Poland much of a hope at this summer’s tournament.

But that would not take into account their star striker, Ewa Pajor.

After a record-breaking debut season with Barcelona, the 28-year-old goes into the competition as the most prolific striker in the world.

It has not been a straightforward journey for the Pole, who has overcome a career-threatening eye disease on the way, and while she has been rewarded with trophies at club level, it is her achievements with the national team which mean the most.

“Representing your country and leading it to its first major tournament is something you carry in your heart forever,” Pajor told BBC Sport.

Despite being drawn in a daunting group which contains eight-time Euros winners Germany, 2021 Olympic silver medallists Sweden and 2017 Euros runners-up Denmark, Pajor says Poland can make their mark.

‘She was a Galactico’

She grew up on a farm outside Uniejow, a spa town of fewer than 2,000 people in central Poland.

If she wasn’t helping with the cows, she played football with her brothers – she was one of five siblings – as well as the local boys, outscoring them as if she were her idol Cristiano Ronaldo.

After she was spotted playing with local team Orleta Wielenin – she was the only girl playing – Pajor’s primary school PE teacher started to take her to tournaments in the town of Konin as her parents could not take time off from the farm.

Soon Pajor joined the youth system of women’s club Medyk Konin and she and older sister Paulina moved into a dormitory an hour from home.

Homesickness hit Pajor hard, but her parents had brought up a tough child.

“My ambition comes from my parents,” she told DAZN. “From a young age I saw how hard-working and ambitious they are. They instilled that in me, as well as never giving up. “

It was at Medyk that Pajor first met Nina Patalon, now Poland’s head coach, who at the time was coaching in the club’s youth set-up.

Patalon – the first woman in Poland to receive a Uefa Pro Diploma – has coached thousands of girls and women over the years, but she still remembers the moment she first saw a 10-year-old Pajor.

“Ewa came to one of my sessions with girls two years older than her, this tiny girl with a ball almost bigger than her,” Patalon told BBC Sport.

“At first, I thought she was way too small for the group. But then she started playing, and we were all stunned.

“Her speed, coordination, the way she moved with the ball – it was simply extraordinary. The older girls couldn’t handle her.

Pajor made her senior debut for Medyk – coached by Patalon – at 15 years and 133 days, scoring twice as she become the youngest player to appear in Poland’s top flight.

She went on to score 64 goals in 60 league games for the club before joining German giants Wolfsburg in 2015.

Moving to a club that was a fixture in the Champions League, and playing in a physical domestic league, was a huge step up for Pajor – she told DAZN that she was “very thin with no muscles” at the time.

It was in 2017 in Germany that Pajor was diagnosed with keratoconus, a degenerative eye disease that can cause blurriness and stop the eye from focusing properly.

The issue threatened her career, but two surgeries and adaptive contact lenses allowed her to continue her development.

After making modest contributions to Wolfsburg’s Frauen-Bundesliga title wins in 2016-17 and 2017-18, Pajor scored 24 goals in 19 games in 2018-19 as her side won a third successive title.

Pajor followed that up with 17 goals in 16 games as Wolfsburg again won the title in 2019-20, before injury disrupted the following two campaigns.

Nine goals in the 2022-23 Women’s Champions League took Wolfsburg to the final, during which she scored the opener.

Yet for the fourth time in her career Pajor was on the losing side as Wolfsburg surrendered a 2-0 lead to lose 3-2 to Barcelona in Eindhoven.

Breaking records in Barcelona

The quality and standards at Barcelona are such that it often takes new signings months to find their feet, but that was no issue for Pajor.

Not only did Pajor win the Pichichi Trophy as the top scorer in Liga F last season, but at the time of writing she is the top-scoring player – female or male – in the world in 2025 with 29 goals.

Though Barcelona lost to Arsenal in the Champions League final – bringing her tally of defeats in Europe’s premier club tournament’s showpiece to five – she undoubtedly improved a team that was already close to perfection.

“Barca and Pajor have improved each other. Her arrival gave Barca a number nine, a killer,” Spanish football journalist Julia Gimenez Funes told BBC Sport.

“After Asisat Oshoala’s departure last year, Salma Paralluelo filled that position and did very well even though it wasn’t her natural position.

“However, Barca needed a pure centre-forward like Pajor who could take advantage of passes from Patri Guijarro, Alexia Putellas and Aitana Bonmati. “

Speaking before the Champions League final in May, Barca boss Pere Romeu said that “having Ewa Pajor in the box gives us more presence than we had before”.

Barcelona have not only taught Pajor a new way to play football – she drops deeper and gets more involved in build-up play than she did at Wolfsburg – but other aspects of the game as well.

“What surprised me most was the focus on team culture and details,” Pajor told BBC Sport.

“It’s not just talent – it’s discipline, humility, and the will to improve constantly.

‘Representing a generation’

Ewa PajorGetty Images

As Poland’s all-time leading goal scorer with – at the time of writing – 68 goals in 101 appearances, it was fitting Pajor scored the most significant goal in the history of Polish women’s football.

Hanging on to a 1-0 aggregate lead against Austria in the second leg of their Euro 2025 qualification play-off in Vienna, Pajor smashed home from close range in the fourth minute of stoppage time to secure victory.

Pajor broke down in tears at the final whistle, Poland’s place at a major tournament for the very first time secured on her 28th birthday.

“It was one of the most emotional moments of my life,” Pajor told BBC Sport.

“Knowing we had made history – it’s hard to describe. I’ve won titles at club level, but this was different.

“It’s not just about me – it’s about the team, the journey, and every little girl watching who now knows this is possible. “

Though Poland lost all of their Euros qualifiers – they earned a place in the play-offs by winning their group in the 2023-24 Uefa Women’s Nations League – Pajor is bullish on their chances.

“We’ve grown so much as a group, and I believe in the work we’ve done,” she said.

‘I’ve seen Oasis play 16 times and once gave Liam Gallagher a present he’ll never forget’

A superfan from Oasis claims she has seen Liam and Noel Gallagher play 16 times and that she once gave him a birthday present he still treasures. She could be their number one fan.

Katy Georgiou and her idol Liam Gallagher when she was a teenager were both teenagers.

Some Might Say Oasis fever is sweeping the world ahead of the Britpop band’s much anticipated reunion starting with their first gig together in 16 years. And as millions bag tickets to see them at their UK concerts, the Mirror might just have found their number one fan.

Oasis famously split in August 2009 after brothers Liam and Noel Gallagher got into a fight backstage before a concert in Paris. It wasn’t the first time they’d come to blows – but this public spat signified the end for the band who had had us all singing along to catchy 90s anthems like Roll With It and Wonderwall.

Now 16 years later – instead of Looking Back in Anger – they’re reuniting and touring the UK with their first gig kicking off in Cardiff tonight (July 4) much to the delight of millions of fans around the world. And while more than one million fans have been lucky enough to grab tickets at one of their concerts this summer, could we have found their number one fan?

Oasis has been a devoted fan since 1995 when Katy Georgiou, a music therapist, first discovered them. She recalls how the lyrics “Live Forever at Glastonbury” really resonated with her when she was just 12-years-old when she saw them playing them on television while her grandmother was recovering from surgery.

She’s seen them play together and separately 16 times and met her idols several times over the years, but her favorite memory is when she called him in 2005 about a present she had given him eight years earlier.

“I have some beautiful and funny memories of meeting the Gallagher brothers,” Katy tells The Mirror. “I’ve met them a few times and in 1998 I gave Liam a gift for his birthday and to say thank you as a fan. It was a tiny, white, tasselled tambourine that I’d bought from a music shop in Camden market, along with a black and white print of John Lennon, because every fan knows that he loves John Lennon.

“Years later in 2005 when I was in my final year of university, I was sitting in my room one morning writing an essay when I got a phone call from my mum. She told me that she’d gone out shopping and that I’d never guess who’d just walked in: Liam Gallagher!”

Liam spotted Katy talking to her on the phone and asked if he knew her because he believed he could identify her. She informed him that she was speaking with her daughter, who is a huge fan.

He says, “The next thing I know, he has taken the phone off of her hands and greets me”! Katie recalls, and I said hello back before the quick conversation. I experienced shock. Even the worst part wasn’t there. I then said, “Liam, I have no idea if you remember me, but I’ve met you a few times in the past and I once gave you a tambourine as a present.” “

He then proceeded to explain the tambourine to me. Did it have skin on white? he inquired. Yes! ‘ I responded, ” ” Was there a tassel on it? ‘ he said. Yes! ‘ I responded. He claimed to still have it and that he remembered it. Eight years later, he still recalls the information I had given him. It really made my day and made me realize how important it is to remember people.

Katy first saw Oasis play live at Wembley Stadium in 1997 at the age of 14, before returning to see them at Wembley Stadium in 2000. Five years later, in Milton Keynes, she saw them there. Before they split up, she had the opportunity to witness them again in 2009, once at Wembley Stadium and once more at the Electric Proms at Camden Roundhouse.

After they split, Katy saw Liam Gallagher in Zurich 2017, at Knebworth in 2022 and at Manchester Co-Op in 2024. “I also saw Noel Gallagher’s High Flying birds in 2015 at the 02 arena, 2022 in Hampstead Heath, 2023 at Brighton on the Beach and in 2024 at Alexandra Palace,” she adds. “And I saw Noel acoustically at the Royal Albert Hall in 2007 and 2010, Beady Eye in 2011 in Madrid, and Liam with Bonehead at Royal Albert Hall 2013.”

What makes the 90s Britpop band so unique, though? When you listen to any Oasis song, Katy says, “It’s about us, we, you, and I. Second, love, loss, joy, and drawing on archetypes are universal themes that anyone of any age and culture can comprehend.

“This band has been around their entire life.” They never once left me a thought even in the 16 years that followed their split in 2009 and their 2025 reunification. The reunion is more than just two brothers coming back together; it’s about everyone whose lives they changed and touched and how they came to share that same experience of unity and nebulous emotion that Oasis first evoked in us.

Noel Gallagher will always make a point of praising the “people” who made his songs great in any interview he gives. It’s about how we interact with those songs, what we do with them, and what we do to make those songs special by passing them on to others.

Katy Georgiou is a music-industry therapist and author of How to Understand and Deal with Stress and the founder of Sound Affects Podcast exploring music and mental health.

Lena Dunham says new Netflix series is a ‘love letter’ to her favourite UK city

Landing a deal with HBO at the tender age of 23, Lena Dunham’s Girls offered an authentic glimpse into the lives of four 20-somethings in New York City, bagging both Bafta and Golden Globe accolades along the way.

After wrapping up Girls in 2017, Lena Dunham has been busy directing comedic gems such as Catherine Called Birdy with stars Bella Ramsey and Andrew Scott, and helming the pilot for the dramatic series Industry.

Now, aged 39 and a decade on from the Girls finale, Dunham is gearing up for her latest venture, Too Much. The 10-episode rom-com extravaganza ropes in The White Lotus’s Will Sharpe and Hacks sensation Megan Stalter. In collaboration with her beau, English rockstar Luis Felber, the show takes a leaf out of their own romantic tale.

According to Dunham, “I think the inspiration for it all came from our lives, and once you start writing, you discover who the characters are and embark on a journey that departs from it.” She says, “I always like to write from a place that starts with the personal, because I believe personal stories are universal, and then see what it has in store for me,” and that she enjoys spinning tales from personal threads.

Jessica and Sharpe’s Felix will follow Stalter, a dedicated New Yorker hitting the reset button in London following Heartbreak, into their intriguing relationship.

Do Americans and Brits actually communicate in common language? This is explored in Too Much, which explores both their blossoming relationships.

Too Much is described as a love letter to the UK’s capital city by Dunham, who relocated from New York to London in 2021. She said, “I adore everything about London.” I adore the city’s contrast.

Too Much exposes the grittier, less glossy side of London in the same way Girls gave a more unfiltered view of New York. Jessica lives in a council estate in Hoxton, East London, rather than a stately Borough Market apartment like Bridget Jones.

According to Dunham, “I was obsessed with sex and the city growing up in New York.” “I figured that my oven will be full of Manolo Blahniks when I graduate from university.”

“Then I entered the world as a recession was starting, and so many of my mates were job hunting and living in, you know, literal rooms the size of this tiny table in Brooklyn – and I hadn’t seen that reflected on screen.

“I was fed those same romantic comedies again when I moved to London.” It’s not even about contrasting glamour and non-glamour, in my opinion. Because I have a strong love for the city, I wanted to show every corner of London in a variety of locations.

The eagerly awaited series ‘Too Much’ will drop on Netflix for streaming starting Thursday 10 July.

Takehiro Tomiyasu and his team have agreed to terminate their contract, but the defender is leaving.

After only playing six minutes of football last year, the Japan international is recovering from knee surgery.

Tomiyasu will have to wait another five months as he continues to recover from an operation he had in February.

The 26-year-old had surgery on his knee in 2023 after missing the start of last season with a previous knee injury.

His current contract was set to expire at the end of the current season, but according to information from BBC Sport, Arsenal and Tomiyasu have reached a settlement to end it.

Tomiyasu, who left Bologna for Arsenal in 2021, made 79 appearances.

This summer, Arsenal have already begun looking at defensive reinforcements, with Cristin Mosquera as a target.
