Club career

edit

First stint at Legia

edit

He played his first match at the Ekstraklasa tier on 24 July 2021 against Wisła Płock.[2]

Loan to Stomil

edit

On 25 February 2022, Legia agreed to loan Tobiasz to I liga club Stomil Olsztyn.[3] He made his debut on 26 February in a 1–1 draw away to Korona Kielce at the Municipal Stadium.[4]

Breakthrough

edit

Having completed the spring round in Olsztyn, he returned to Warsaw and became Legia's first goalkeeper for the 2022–23 season.[5]

On 2 May 2023, he was named top player of the 2022–23 Polish Cup final match against Raków Częstochowa, won by Legia following a penalty shootout.[6]

In the 2023–24 season, he contributed to Legia's UEFA Europa Conference League campaign, with the club advancing from their group following wins against Aston Villa, AZ Alkmaar and Zrinjski Mostar.[7] Until February 2024, he continued to feature regularly in the first team in the league as well. However, after several months of weaker form, and directly after losing a UECL play-off match against Norwegian side Molde (0–3) on 22 February, he forfeited his place in the starting line-up to Dominik Hładun.[8][9] On 3 March 2024, he appeared in a match for their III liga reserves, during which he saved a penalty kick.[10] He rejoined the first team on 12 May 2024 for a blockbuster 2–1 away win over Lech Poznań.[11]
