List of Lechia Gdańsk managers
This is a list of Lechia Gdańsk managers. The current manager is Piotr Stokowiec. Most of the managers through Lechia's history have been Polish, however in recent years more nationalities have been represented. Currently there have been 7 managers from countries other than Poland, the first being Václav Křížek (Czech Republic) in 1949, and most recently Adam Owen (Wales) in 2018. Both Jerzy Jastrzębowski and Piotr Stokowiec could be seen as Lechia's most successful managers, with Jastrzębowski winning both the Polish Cup and Polish SuperCup in 1983, and getting Lechia promoted from III liga and II liga in successive seasons in 1983 and 1984,[1] with Stokowiec winning Lechia’s second Polish Cup and Polish SuperCup, while leading the team to their joint highest ever Ekstraklasa finish of 3rd, all in 2019. The other manager who has the record for managing Lechia to their highest finish in the Polish league is Tadeusz Foryś who achieved the feat in 1956.
Managers
The list of managers from 1949 is complete.[2]
Dates
Some of the managers full dates of when they started/finished the job are known, where as with others its only the year that is known. The dates have been added to try and give the most accurate representation of when the manager held their role at the club.
If a manager is known to have left at the end of the season but the full date is not known, the date listed is that of the final official date of the season (for example this date is usually on 31 June if the season runs from July-June), the same is for if a manager is known to have started at the beginning of the following season, the date listed will be the first official date of the season (this is usually 1 July if the season runs from July-June). Some managers are known to have started their role after the winter break, if the official date is not known these will be listed as 1 February as often friendlies/official games were not played in January.
