Ludwig Małachowski Thorell

Playing for IF Brommapojkarna since childhood, Malachowski advanced through its elite boys teams, and became a Sweden youth international. When he was 16 years old, Brommapojkarna refused an offer from AS Roma to buy him. He contested the 2022 UEFA European Under-17 Championship. He first appeared on the bench for Brommapojkarna in 2021, made his Cup debut in August 2022 and his Superettan debut in November 2022. However, he found it difficult to establish himself in the first team. Following a loan to AFC Eskilstuna in 2023, he transferred to Sandvikens IF in 2024 on a three-year contract. Having impressed in the 2024 Superettan, Malachowski was bought by Allsvenskan club Mjällby AIF in January 2025. He scored his first Mjällby goals in the ultimate friendly match in March 2025 before the start of the 2025 Allsvenskan. His first league goal came against Hammarby, helping Mjällby win 3–1. He continued scoring goals, and Mjällby found themselves atop the Allsvenskan table after one third of the season. On 7 July 2026, Malachowski signed a four-season contract with Basel in Switzerland.

He is born to a Swedish father and Polish mother, and is a devout Catholic.
