Maciej Gostomski (born 27 September 1988) is a Polish professional footballer who plays as a goalkeeper for I liga club Stal Mielec.
Gostomski was born in Kartuzy. At Legia Warsaw he was the third-choice goalkeeper behind Ján Mucha and Wojciech Skaba[1] and played primarily for Młoda Ekstraklasa. He fell out of favour after a series of photos were leaked to the media of him smoking and throwing a pineapple at an apartment window.[2]
He had a series of short spells at various clubs, including Bałtyk Gdynia which he joined on a one-year contract in February 2011.[3] He became a part-time player, working also as a fisherman.[4] His fortunes changed after joining II liga side Bytovia Bytów in mid-2011.[5]
On 28 June 2013, Gostomski moved to Ekstraklasa club Lech Poznań on a free transfer.[5] Brought in as a third-choice goalkeeper behind Krzysztof Kotorowski and Jasmin Burić, Gostomski became a regular starter mid-way through the season,[6] and kept his position in the starting line-up for the majority of the 2013–14 and 2014–15 campaigns.[7] On 24 May 2015, Gostomski replaced the injured Burić in the 82nd minute of an away game against Lechia Gdańsk. After a crucial save from Antonio Čolak in stoppage time, Gostomski secured a 2–1 win which moved Lech to the top of the table with three games to go; Lech went on to win the title.[8][9] He left the club on 31 December 2015 upon the expiration of his contract.[10]
On 3 January 2016, Gostomski signed a six-month contract with Scottish side Rangers.[11] He became Mark Warburton's second signing of the 2016 January transfer window.[12] In March 2016, he was released from his contract at Rangers just over two months after joining the club.[13]
Gostomski signed for Korona Kielce on 9 June 2016.[14]
On 11 August 2020, he signed a one-year deal with Górnik Łęczna.[15]
After spending four years with the Lublin side, three of them as the team's captain,[16] Gostomski announced on 13 June 2024 that he would leave Górnik at the end of his contract in June.
Later that day, Wisła Płock announced the signing of Gostomski on a two-year deal.[17] A first-choice goalkeeper in the first half of the 2024–25 campaign, his season was cut short by a MCL injury suffered during training in January 2025.[18]
On 6 January 2026, he moved to I liga club Stal Mielec on a six-month contract.[19]
