Gornik Zabrze has been in decline since its heyday in the 1960s and 1970s, when it reached the final of the European Cup Winners' Cup in 1970. However, the club has been revitalised under new ownership, which began five years ago. The former international has been instrumental in securing sponsorships and transfers, and his presence has created a sense of excitement among fans. The club's infrastructure has also undergone significant improvements. The training centre features a gym, a recovery room, and three high-quality training fields. The stadium is being renovated to increase its capacity from 28,000 to 32,000 seats. The facilities are described as superb, with the stadium always full, except for the occasional match.
Gornik Zabrze's recent success, including winning the Coupe last season, has been a major factor in its resurgence. The club's young players are eager to build on this momentum and make a name for themselves in European football. The team is determined to succeed and is no longer seen as just a small Polish club.
Next, Gornik Zabrze will face Monaco in the Conference League playoffs on Thursday, 24 August, at 20:00.
