SALT LAKE CITY—Looking to improve its attack for a potential postseason run, Real Salt Lake added 20-year-old midfielder Dominik Marczuk from Jagiellonia Bialystok of the Polish Ekstraklasa league.
RSL announced the signing on Wednesday, August 14.
“I am very happy to arrive in the United States at Real Salt Lake and move ahead in my career,” said Marczuk. “Major League Soccer’s growth in North America is excellent and I hope to arrive quickly to meet my teammates, work hard and help the Club, and obviously bring trophies home to the RSL fans.”

“Dominik is a young, up-and-coming player that embraces the challenge of moving outside his home country. We believe he can help us this year and be part of our core group moving forward. We expect him to expand and impact our attack this year and are excited to see the group mesh during the final stretch into the MLS Cup Playoffs.”
Marczuk can play every attacking position for RSL. In 39 games over the past year, he scored seven goals and added 15 assists. Marczuk signed his first pro deal at 16 in 2019.

“We’re excited to add another technical, aggressive, and versatile attacker to our setup, as Dominik will no doubt deepen our attacking options and provide upside for the future,” said RSL Chief Soccer Officer Kurt Schmid.
The club hopes Marczuk will clear the visa process and be eligible for RSL’s next game on Saturday, August 24. He is signed through the 2028 season.
