Bronisław Szlagowski (born 23 January 1938) is a Polish retired professional footballer who played as a midfielder. He started his career in Poland with Lechia Gdańsk before spending the rest of his career in Germany, where he was known as Horst Schlagowski.

Career

[edit]

Szlagowski was born in Pruszcz Gdański in the Free City of Danzig in 1938. He started his playing career with a local team, Lechia Gdańsk. In his debut season he made 11 top flight appearances and scored six goals.[2] Szlagowski's six goals in 11 games, a ratio of 0.55 goals per game is still a Lechia record for goals per game in the top division, with his hat-trick against Zagłębie Sosnowiec in a 5–0 win was the clubs first in the top division.[3]

In September 1957 Szlagowski moved to Germany, starting with playing for Werder Bremen.[4] After a season with Werder Bremen, Szlagowski joined Rot-Weiß Oberhausen for two seasons. During this time he made 49 league appearances and scored 25 goals, including scoring four in one match against Alemannia Aachen.[5] Szlagowski then joined FSV Frankfurt for a season, notably scoring in a 4–1 win over Bayern Munich.[6] Szlagowski went on to have short stints with FC St. Pauli, Wormatia Worms and Holstein Kiel before retiring after his second spell with Rot-Weiß Oberhausen.
