He played in forward, was regarded as a very fast and tough player, who never gave up. In the years 1934–1938 he played in all Wisła Kraków's games in Polish Soccer League. Then, sometime between late 1938 and early 1939, he was purchased by a rising power of Polish soccer, the team of Junak Drohobycz. During the September Campaign, he was captured by the Soviets and forcefully taken to Siberia. In 1942 he managed to get to the Polish Army in Soviet Union, created by General Władysław Anders. From there, across Africa, he arrived in England, where he stayed and eventually died.
