On 13 August 2020, Czubak joined I liga side Widzew Łódź on a two-year deal. [10] He scored two goals in 17 appearances before leaving by mutual consent on 6 August 2021. [11]
Hours after his Widzew exit, fellow second division outfit Arka Gdynia announced the signing of Czubak on a three-year contract. [8] He was the I liga top scorer in the 2022–23 season with 21 goals in 33 league fixtures, [12] including a hat-trick in a 3–0 away win over Sandecja Nowy Sącz on 26 February 2023. [13]
In September 2024, he extended his contract with Arka until mid-2026. [14] On 6 October 2024, he recorded his second hat-trick for the club in a 6–0 away win over Odra Opole, scoring all three goals in the first half. With this feat, he surpassed Grzegorz Niciński as the third best scorer in the Pomeranian club's history. [15]
