Managerial career
[edit]Early years
[edit]In 2010, Papszun was appointed manager of Polish sixth division side KS Łomianki, helping them achieve promotion to the Polish fifth division.[citation needed] In 2011, he was appointed manager of Legionovia Legionowo in the Polish fourth division, helping them achieve promotion to the Polish third division.[citation needed] In 2016, he was appointed manager of Polish third division club Raków Częstochowa, helping them achieve promotion to the Polish Ekstraklasa within 3 seasons[2] and receiving interest from Legia, the most successful club in Poland.[3]
Successful seasons
[edit]Raków Częstochowa led by Marek Papszun won its first major trophy on 2 May 2021, defeating Arka Gdynia in the final of the Polish Cup by a score of 2–1. The win also secured them a place in the newly formed UEFA Europa Conference League for the 2021–22 season, their maiden appearance in European football.[4] In the same season, Papszun's Raków finished in second place in the Ekstraklasa standings, club's highest ever league position.[5] After the season, he was announced the Ekstraklasa Coach of the Year.[6] On 2 May 2022, Raków defeated Lech Poznań 3–1 and secured its second consecutive Polish Cup.[7] On 9 July 2022, he led Raków to their second consecutive Polish Super Cup trophy with a 2–0 win over Lech Poznań.[8] On 19 April 2023, with Raków eight points clear at the top and with six league games to go, as well as the Polish Cup final to be played, Papszun announced he would leave the team at the end of the season.[9] Under Papszun's leadership Raków secured its first Polish championship ever by winning the 2022–23 Ekstraklasa season.
Back to Raków
[edit]Following Raków Częstochowa's disappointing results in the 2023–24 campaign under Dawid Szwarga, the club decided to seek another coach. On 21 May 2024, four days before the final Ekstraklasa fixture, it was announced that Papszun would take over the team with the start of the 2024–25 season. He tied himself with a two–year contract, with the possibility of leaving in strictly defined situations.[10][11]
