Xavier Dziekoński (born 6 October 2003) is a Polish professional footballer who plays as a goalkeeper for Ekstraklasa club Korona Kielce.[1]

Club career

Jagiellonia Białystok

On 18 June 2020, Dziekoński was submitted to the senior squad of the Ekstraklasa club Jagiellonia Białystok.[2] On 15 July 2020, he made his league debut, in a Jagiellonia's 2–1 victory over Śląsk Wrocław.[3] In September 2020, he was called up for the Poland national under-19 football team for a two-leg game against Denmark.[4]

He was the Ekstraklasa's best young player of February 2021.[5]

Raków Częstochowa

On 12 July 2022, Raków Częstochowa announced the signing of Dziekoński, who joined the club on a three-year deal with an extension option.[6]

Loan to Garbarnia Kraków

On 17 January 2023, having only appeared for Raków's reserve side in III liga, he was loaned until the end of the season to II liga side Garbarnia Kraków.[7]

Korona Kielce

On 29 June 2023, Dziekoński moved on loan again, joining another Ekstraklasa team Korona Kielce until the end of the season, with an option to make the move permanent.[8] Dziekoński made 29 league appearances across the 2023–24 season, as Korona narrowly avoided relegation on the last matchday.[9]

In June 2024, Korona exercised their buy option and signed Dziekoński to a two-year contract.[10] He spent the first half of the 2024–25 season as Korona's first-choice goalkeeper before losing his spot to Rafał Mamla after the winter break.[11] He was promoted back to the starting line-up ahead of the 2025–26 season. He started all 34 of Korona's league games that season, keeping nine clean sheets, and was named the Ekstraklasa Goalkeeper of the Season after its conclusion.[12]
