Marek Grabowski (born 20 January 1964) is a former Polish footballer who played as a forward.

Career

He began his career in Poland with Metal Grodków before moving to Moto Jelcz Oława.[1]

In 1991, he joined the

1991 CSL season.[3]

Afterwards, he returned to Poland, where he played for Moto Jelcz Oława and Polar Wrocław.[1] In 2001, he joined Śląsk Wrocław,[4] but returned to Polar soon after.[1][5] He served as team captain for Polar and became a player-coach in 2003.[6]

In 2004, after head coach Tadeusz Pawłowski was dismissed, he was one of four players removed from Polar.[7] While no reason was given for his removal, it was unofficially known that the club managers did not like that he was one of a few players who consistently demanded payment of outstanding salaries.[7] He received a letter from the club that he was no longer to play for the club, but was barred from training for any other team without their permission, including the reserves, despite previously saying he would be allowed to play for the second team.[7] Grabowski submitted a letter to Polar and the Polish Football Association, demanding the termination of his contract due to unpaid wages.[7][8] Late in January, the training ban was revoked and he was free to train with other clubs.[9] In February, his contract was officially terminated by mutual consent.[10]

Afterwards, he returned to Śląsk Wrocław.[11] In 2004, he was charged in connection with a match-fixing scandal in connection with his former club Polar.[12]
