Paweł Sobczak

While rated as the 3rd most expensive player in Poland and attracting interest from German Bundesliga side Hertha BSC, Sobczak signed for Austria Wien, one of the most successful Austrian clubs. However, he was reported to have poor attitude, being distracted by his high salary there, and did not play as much due to change in head coach. After retirement, Sobczak said that he "was completely unprepared for such a trip [to Austria], especially mentally". For the second half of the 2000–01 season, he signed for Genoa in the Italian second division. In 2002, Sobczak signed for Polish club Pogoń Szczecin before joining Austrian team Admira Wacker Mödling because of Pogoń's financial issues. In 2004, after playing in Cyprus with Anorthosis Famagusta, he signed for Wisła Płock in the Polish top flight. In 2005, he signed for Polish second division outfit Podbeskidzie Bielsko-Biała on loan. After departing Wisła, Sobczak played in Germany and Greece as well as the Polish lower leagues.
