Lukas Podolski Announces Plan to Own Górnik Zabrze

Lukas Podolski, the former Bundesliga forward, announced his intention to become the sole owner of Polish club Górnik Zabrze. The move would give him full control of the club’s operations.

Podolski is a FIFA World Cup winner, having lifted the trophy with the German national team. His international success includes the 2014 tournament victory.

He also holds a German Bundesliga championship from his time in the top flight. The domestic title adds to his collection of major honours.

In Poland, Podolski secured the Polish Cup while playing for Górnik Zabrze. The cup win marked his first major trophy with the Polish side.

Throughout his career, Podolski was known as a prolific striker in the Bundesliga. His goal‑scoring record contributed to his reputation in German football.

The prospective ownership would make Podolski the club’s sole proprietor, a rare transition from player to full shareholder. The announcement signals a new chapter for both the former international and Górnik Zabrze.
