Club career

[edit]

As a youth player, Kobacki joined the youth academy of Polish side Lech Poznań.[1]

In 2021, he was sent on loan from Italian Serie A club Atalanta to Polish I liga side Arka Gdynia.[2] On 14 August 2021, he made his debut in a 1–0 win over Stomil Olsztyn.[3] On 18 August 2021, Kobacki scored his first 2 goals for the club in a 3–1 win over Widzew Łódź.[3] On 29 April 2022, he joined Arka on a permanent basis, signing a three-year contract.[4]

On 5 July 2022, Kobacki extended his contract with Arka until 2026 and joined Miedź Legnica on a one-year loan.[5]

During the 2023–24 Poland second-tier season, he scored 13 goals in 32 appearances for Arka.[6]

On 3 July 2024, Kobacki joined English club Sheffield Wednesday for an undisclosed fee, signing a four-year contract with the club.[6][7] He made his Wednesday debut against Plymouth Argyle on 11 August 2024, coming off the bench for Djeidi Gassama in a 4–0 victory.[8] The following season he would pick up a groin injury against Grimsby Town which would rule him out until after the following international break.[9]

On 1 July 2026, Kobacki returned to Poland, joining Ekstraklasa club Wisła Płock for an undisclosed fee, signing a contract until 2028 with a club option to extend his contract.[10][11]
