“Lechia Gdańsk is not just a football club – it’s the heart of our city, a true white-and-green culture whose rhythm has been beating continuously for 80 years.

Over the past two years of my presidency, together with the club’s owners, we’ve had the privilege of meeting incredible people here in this city. Lechia is a true institution, now celebrating its 80th birthday! Let’s mark this moment with pride and dignity.

It is a tremendous honor to lead the club at such an important time in its history. With great humility, I recognize the magnitude of this task and the responsibility we carry – both myself and the owners. Our goal is to build something truly special here in Gdańsk, and to win trophies for a club that means so much to its community and loyal supporters.

This anniversary is a celebration for everyone – the players, staff, sponsors, partners, and above all, the entire community that surrounds Lechia. It is not only a moment to reflect and appreciate our rich history, but also an inspiration to continue strengthening the club’s legacy and attracting new generations of white-and-green fans” – said Paolo Urfer, President of Lechia Gdańsk.
