Career
Already at the age of 12 he joined the local Korona Sambor. During World War I he fled to Vienna, where he continued his training in a variety of sport clubs, including Gersthof Wien, Germania Wien and Amateure Wien. After the war he returned to Poland and in 1920 started a semi-professional career in Korona Sambor.
During the following year he moved to Lwów (modern Lviv, Ukraine), where he joined the ŻKansas Lwów sports club
In 1923 he was transferred to Hasmonea Lwów, the most important Jewish football club in Poland and one of the four Lwów-based clubs playing in the first league. He remained one of the most notable players of that club until 1932, when he joined Legia Warsaw.
He also played twice in the Poland national football team scoring four goals: three in a match against Turkey in 1926 and one against the United States of America in 1928. He was one of only two first-timers in the history of Polish national football team to score a hat-trick in the first match, the other being Józef Korbas (in 1937 against Bulgaria).
During the Nazi and Soviet invasion of Poland he fled Warsaw and settled in his home town which was then annexed by the Union of the Soviet Socialist Republics. He returned to Korona Sambor which was soon afterwards closed down and recreated as Dinamo Sambor by the Soviet authorities.
