Mariusz Jop [ˈmarjuʂ ˈjɔp] (born 3 August 1978) is a Polish professional football manager and former player. He is currently the manager of I liga club Wisła Kraków.
Born in Ostrowiec Świętokrzyski, Jop started out playing for KSZO Ostrowiec Świętokrzyski. He won the Polish championship with Wisła Kraków in the 2000–01, 2002–03 and 2003–04 seasons. While playing in FC Moscow he became the first Pole to score a goal in the Russian Premier League. On 11 July 2009, he returned to Wisła as a free agent after terminating his contract with FC Moscow.
International career
Jop was selected to the 23-men national team for the 2006 FIFA World Cup finals in Germany. He was also included in the Polish Euro 2008 squad and made one appearance in a group match against Austria.
Managerial career
On 14 May 2021, Jop was announced the interim assistant for the Ekstraklasa side Wisła Kraków to the interim manager Kazimierz Kmiecik, after Peter Hyballa had finished his coaching duties.[2]
On 2 December 2023, Jop's former teammate Radosław Sobolewski resigned from his position as manager of Wisła. The following day, Jop, having coached Wisła's reserves side since July that year, was named caretaker manager until the end of 2023.[3] He led Wisła to three wins in three games across all competitions, before joining Albert Rudé's staff as an assistant on 29 December, when the Spaniard was appointed permanent manager.[4]
On 24 September 2024, following the dismissal of Kazimierz Moskal, Jop took charge of Wisła as a caretaker again.[5] After recording seven wins, two draws and one loss in his first ten games in charge, Jop was appointed on a permanent basis until the end of the season on 23 November.[6] On 31 December, his contract was extended until June 2026.[7]
