Maksymilian Stryjek (born 18 July 1996) is a Polish professional footballer who plays as a goalkeeper for Scottish Premiership club Kilmarnock. He was a Poland youth international.

Club career

[edit | edit source]

Born in Warsaw,[1] Stryjek began playing football for his school at the age of 6.[2] He signed for Polonia Warsaw at the age of 11. He moved to English club Sunderland in 2013, following a trial with the club.[2]

He spent a loan spell with Boston United in 2015, making 10 league and 2 cup appearances for them.[3] In February 2016 he signed a new contract with Sunderland, lasting until 2019,[4] and in July 2017 he made his senior debut for the club, in a friendly game.[5] He moved on loan to Accrington Stanley on transfer deadline day, 31 August 2017.[2][6] He was injured 9 minutes into his professional debut, on 2 September 2017.[7]

On 21 September, Stryjek joined National League side Eastleigh on a one-month loan to replace the recently retired Graham Stack.[8] On 11 June 2019, Sunderland announced that Stryjek was to leave the club when his contract expired at the end of that month.[9][10]

On 1 July 2019, Stryjek returned to Eastleigh, this time on a one-year deal.[11] He returned home to Poland as the season was terminated and he was released due to the COVID-19 outbreak.[12] After a successful trial[12] he signed for Scottish Premiership club Livingston on 20 July 2020 on a three-year deal.[13]

On 18 August 2022, he signed for EFL League One side Wycombe Wanderers.[14][15] On 24 February 2024, Styjek was red-carded in Wycombe's 1–0 defeat at Stevenage.[16] It was his 82nd and last appearance for the Chairboys.[17]

On 13 April 2024, he signed on an emergency loan for Crewe Alexandra.[18] While on loan at Crewe, Wycombe announced on 2 May 2024 that Stryjek would be released by the club when his contract expired in June 2024.[17] Stryjek kept his first clean sheet for Crewe in their League Two play-off semi-final at Doncaster on 10 May, helping the side to a 2–2 aggregate draw, then saving twice in the penalty shoot-out that Crewe won 4–3.[19]

Stryjek's stay in the United Kingdom came to an end after over eleven years; on 19 June 2024, the defending Polish Ekstraklasa champions Jagiellonia Białystok announced the signing of Stryjek on a two-year contract, with an extension option, effective from 1 July.[20] His first match for Jagiellonia Białystok II was on 10 August 2024 in a 2–3 loss against Wisła II Płock, and he debuted for Jagiellonia's main team in a 3–0 loss against Ajax Amsterdam in the UEFA Europa League on 29 August 2024.[21]

He debuted in the Ekstraklasa on 1 September 2024 in a 1–0 home victory over Widzew Łódź, keeping a clean sheet.[21]

On 4 July 2025, Stryjek returned to Scotland to join Kilmarnock for an undisclosed fee.[22]

International career

[edit | edit source]

Stryjek has represented Poland at under-17, under-18, and under-19 youth international levels.[2] In March 2017 he was called up by the under-21 team for the first time,[23] and went to the U21 Euro's in June.[12][24]
