Career

Gojny began his youth career with his hometown club Odra Wodzisław Śląski, later playing for Gosław-WAP Wodzisław Śląski and LKS Krzyżanowice. He spent time in the Górnik Zabrze's Youth Ekstraklasa team before returning to Krzyżanowice.

In 2012, he rejoined Odra as a senior player, where he played until 2014, suffering a serious injury in March 2013. [2] After recovering, he moved to fierce rivals Energetyk ROW Rybnik as a 19 year old, which later became ROW 1964 Rybnik. [3] In 2018, after 133 appearances and two goals, he moved to GKS 1962 Jastrzębie. [4]

In 2020, after making 65 appearances and scoring three goals, Gojny left GKS after deciding not to renew his contract and let it expire at the end of the season. [5] He then signed with Zagłębie Sosnowiec on a free transfer on a two-year contract, stating his commitment to the team by saying he would "chew the grass" for the club. [6] He was Zagłębie's captain. [7]

In January 2023, Gojny joined Arka Gdynia from Zagłębie Sosnowiec on a permanent transfer, [8] for an undisclosed fee believed to be approx. 300,000 PLN. [7]
