Club career

Góralski began his career with Zawisza Bydgoszcz, but left for Victoria Koronowo on a free transfer in early 2011. He joined Bulgarian champions Ludogorets Razgrad in the summer of 2017, signing a three-year contract.[3]

On 19 January 2020, Góralski moved to Kairat on a three-year contract.[4] On 16 June 2022, Kairat announced that Góralski was leaving the club.[5] It was announced on 17 June 2022 that Góralski had joined VfL Bochum.[6] On 10 August 2023, he left the club by mutual consent.[7]

Despite reported interest from Ekstraklasa clubs Cracovia and Górnik Zabrze, and being linked with a return to Kairat,[8] on 29 August 2023 Góralski signed a three-year deal with fourth division side Wieczysta Kraków.[9]
