Widzew Łódź is experiencing an unexpected change in the club's structure as Piotr Urban has submitted his resignation from the position of academy director. Urban, who held this role since 2024, announced his decision on Friday via the X platform. His departure forces club owner Robert Dobrzycki to begin the search for a new leader for the academy, which is particularly significant in the context of a rebuild following a disappointing season. In his statement, Piotr Urban emphasized that his decision to leave was not planned in advance. He expressed regret over the situation, highlighting his intention to fulfill his duties until the end of the notice period. Urban added that after much consideration, he felt he could not make any other decision. It is surprising that just last winter, Urban denied rumors linking him to a move to Legia Warsaw. Now, in light of internal club dynamics, his sudden resignation raises many questions. Club owner Robert Dobrzycki was reportedly dissatisfied with the actions of other board members, which may be the reason behind this situation. It is possible that we will soon learn more details regarding the reasons for Urban's departure from Widzew Łódź.
