Career
Club
His previous clubs have included Wanda Nowa Huta, Krakus Nowa Huta, Górnik Łęczna, KSZO Ostrowiec Świętokrzyski. He made his debut for Cracovia on 10 September 2004 against Górnik Zabrze.
In May 2011, he joined Israeli club Hapoel Be'er Sheva on a three-year contract.[3] In his debut match against Hapoel Ironi Rishon Le-Zion, he saved a penalty.[4] In early December 2011, he terminated his contract with the club immediately. The decision was made due to concerns for his safety, as the city of Beersheba, located near the Gaza Strip, was at the time the target of attacks by Palestinian organizations.[5]
On 2 August 2019, Cabaj joined Wiślanie Jaśkowice.[6]
