Transfers Synthesis
Piast Gliwice’s movement combines arrivals from domestic and international clubs, multiple free-agent additions and several loan returns. The incoming picture includes L. Pitan, J. Niedbala and Kamil Lubowiecki returning from loans, alongside a smaller group arriving in transfers. Outgoing activity is similarly mixed: free-agent departures sit beside loans, a return to a parent club and transfers such as I. Drapiński to Samsunspor and E. Jirka to GKS Katowice. The movements span the 2025 summer period, the 2025–26 campaign and the opening weeks of the 2026–27 cycle, so they form a time-bounded snapshot rather than a full-season balance. No fees are disclosed for the movements described. Overall, the pattern shows change across several squad pathways without establishing a complete arrivals or departures total.
Leagues Piast Gliwice has participated in

The domestic and friendly entries indicate recent activity, although their latest recorded year is 2025.
More about Piast Gliwice
Piast Gliwice is a professional football club from Gliwice in Poland’s Silesian Voivodeship, founded in 1945. Its official corporate identity is Gliwicki Klub Sportowy Piast Spółka Akcyjna, while Piast Gliwice is the established common name. Its origins are rooted in the post-war history of the city and are associated with Poles displaced from western Ukraine. Structural changes followed during the mid-20th century, including a 1964 integration with GKS Gliwice that produced GKS Piast Gliwice. For many years, Piast was known as a lower-division or second-tier side before establishing a lasting place among Poland’s leading clubs.
The modern breakthrough brought promotion to the Ekstraklasa and the club’s first championship in the competition. Piast subsequently developed a European footprint through qualification campaigns, adding continental chapters to a largely domestic story. Its competitive identity is commonly linked with pragmatic organisation, disciplined defensive work and continuity in the dugout, rather than constant managerial turnover. The club’s name refers to the Piast dynasty, the royal house associated with the foundations of the Polish state.
Home matches are played at the Piotr Wieczorek Municipal Stadium on Okrzei Street. The modern ground opened in 2011 as a reconstructed, single-tier football bowl, replacing earlier grounds on the same site that had been used since the 1920s. Its compact design supports an intimate matchday atmosphere. Blue and red are the defining club colors, appearing prominently in traditional split or vertical home-shirt designs.
Piast operates as a joint-stock company with strong municipal backing and regional corporate partnerships, reflecting the wider Upper Silesian model of publicly connected professional sport. Its crest draws on Gliwice’s civic heraldry, including a Silesian eagle and castle tower. Together, the stadium, colors, civic symbols and long route from regional football to the national top flight give Piast a distinct place in Polish football culture.
