His career highlight was helping Widzew Łódź reach the Champions League group stage in 1996.[3] This at the time meant that the president at the time Aleksander Kwaśniewski gave his support to granting him citizenship with a view to be called up to the national team;[3] however ultimately he received his passport only after retirement from professional football, in 2005.[3]
After retiring from football, he now works for the company "Gra Lech", specialising in fast-assembly tents and marquees.[3]
