Martin Jean Wasinski (born 7 April 2004) is a Belgian professional footballer who plays as a centre-back for Challenger Pro League club RFC Liège, on loan from Schalke 04.
Club career
[edit | edit source]Having joined Charleroi at under-15 level,[2] he progressed through the club's youth ranks, making his professional debut in the 2–2 Belgian First Division A draw with Zulte Waregem on 22 August 2021, aged 17.[3][4] Used in a variety of positions across defence and midfield, and having to split his time between football and school, Wasinski made 15 league appearances during the 2021–22 season.[3][5]
In August 2022, Wasinski extended his contract with Charleroi until summer 2025.[2]
On 6 January 2023, Wasinski was loaned by Kortrijk until the end of the 2022–23 season.[6] On 17 July 2023, it was announced that the loan-deal was extended for the next season also.[7]
On 21 June 2024, 2. Bundesliga club Schalke 04 announced that they had signed Wasinski on a free transfer until 30 June 2028.[8] On 24 January 2025, he was loaned to Genk until the end of the season with an option to make the move permanent, where he was initially supposed to play for their second team Jong Genk in the Challenger Pro League.[9][10] On 2 September 2025, he moved to RFC Liège on a season-long loan with an option to buy.[11]
International career
[edit | edit source]Born in Belgium, Wasinski is of Polish descent.[12] He was called up to the Belgian under-16 team in November 2019 for a youth tournament in Paraguay.[13] He has also represented Belgium at under-18, under-19 and under-20 levels.[14]
