Football trial for Gdansk, Gdynia or Bytów - soccer player salary in Poland?

Hi,

I'm from Australia but I'm a citizen through my mother. I want to play football for one of these teams, and would like to trial.

I'm 26, central midfielder. Ball control, passing, intelligence, vision and composure is what I offer. Play similar style to Varretti (PSG) x Andrea Pirlo - I'm a CDM. Playmaker.

I'm married with 4 children, my wife and I want to buy home with small land and settle in this region permanently.

I hope to finish my career with one club, and then coach youth there.

I'm not using Polska like a step ladder. We want to live there. We want to die old in Zwartowo.

I will be in Polska permanently in 4 months (mid July).
In few weeks I will have videos of matches.
No signing fees.

Does anyone know how much would players at Bytów get paid?

I've just been signed to a semi professional team in the 2 tier, but they pay me full time. No buyout fees though

I had not played for 8 years (for family reasons, too tragic and personal to explain) but as a youth was raised at one of Sydney's top clubs. I had trained more than the 10,000 quality hours they say that's what it takes to make it.

This year I started watching a few games and thought I could match it.

So I tested what skill remained. I could pass perfectly, still juggle easily to 1000 (left-left-right-right), ball control completely there. As for football intelligence and vision - as a youth that was my skill. I have kept very fit - 14 on beep test.

I asked for a trial almost as a joke, but when I played it was like I never left. I was offered a full time contract (though small) for the semi pro team.

It has reignited hope for my wife and I of moving to Polska. It has long been our plan, but illness and financial hardship have made it impossible. Giving my all to football as a youth left me with no qualification.

Hi Torq,

No, not Bytovia - a team in Australia. I wish that were true, that would mean my family and I were in Polska!

I am hoping to play for one of these teams, and hoping for a trial

Thanks so much. I'll be learning the language very fast then.
I sell handmade pastries at markets, so back up is no problem.

Thanks Delphia.
I'm pre season now, I'll play out the season and take videos. I just found my coach is half Polish and played professionally in Poland for a while, so has some connections down south. His father shortened his last name so I had no idea he was Polish.

Maybe mid season in Poland I will try to come. Thanks again

Does anyone have links or know someone who does to any of the following teams? It appears we will be coming to Poland in July, I'm looking for a trial - played at the same level in Australia.

Order of preference..
-Sandecja Nowy Sacz
-Nieciecza
-Mielec
-either team in Rzeszów

Or any team in 3 Liga in this region.

I have a few houses around here my wife and I are looking at, but I want to live close to the team I will play for.

Dziękuję!
