Marek Papszun (born 8 August 1974) is a Polish professional football manager and former player who is currently in charge of Ekstraklasa club Raków Częstochowa.

Managerial career

Early years

In 2010, Papszun took charge of Polish sixth division side KS Łomianki, and led them to winning their group and earning promotion to the IV liga in his first season at the club.^[2] In 2011, he was appointed manager of Legionovia Legionowo in the Polish fourth division, helping them achieve promotion to the Polish third division.^[3] On 18 April 2016, he was appointed manager of Polish third division club Raków Częstochowa.^[4] In his first three full seasons in charge, Raków won their division twice, and were promoted to the Polish Ekstraklasa at the end of the 2018–19 season.^[5] In the following months, he drew interest from fellow Ekstraklasa clubs Legia Warsaw and Lech Poznań.^[6]

Successful seasons

Raków led by Papszun won its first major trophy on 2 May 2021, defeating Arka Gdynia in the final of the Polish Cup by a score of 2–1. The win also secured them a place in the newly formed UEFA Europa Conference League for the 2021–22 season, their maiden appearance in European football.^[7] In the same season, Papszun's Raków finished in second place in the Ekstraklasa standings, club's highest ever league position.^[8] After the season, he was named the Ekstraklasa Coach of the Year.^[9] On 2 May 2022, Raków defeated Lech Poznań 3–1 and secured its second consecutive Polish Cup.^[10] On 9 July 2022, he led Raków to their second consecutive Polish Super Cup trophy with a 2–0 win over Lech Poznań.^[11] On 19 April 2023, with Raków eight points clear at the top and with six league games to go, as well as the Polish Cup final to be played, Papszun announced he would leave the team at the end of the season.^[12] Raków went on to secure their first-ever Ekstraklasa title.^[13]

Back to Raków

Following Raków Częstochowa's disappointing results in the 2023–24 campaign under Dawid Szwarga, the club decided to seek another coach. On 21 May 2024, four days before the final Ekstraklasa fixture, it was announced that Papszun would take over the team from the start of the 2024–25 season. He tied himself with a two–year contract, with the possibility of leaving in strictly defined situations.^[14]^[15]
