Maik Nawrocki, born in Bremen on 7 February 2001 (age 25), is a Polish central defender with Celtic. An imposing 6ft 3in (1.90m) presence, he arrived in Glasgow in July 2023 from Legia Warsaw for around £4.5m.
Legia is where his senior career properly took shape. Across two seasons in Warsaw, Nawrocki made 44 league appearances and scored five league goals, with 2022-23 his most productive campaign: four goals in 25 league games. That spell did most to establish him before Celtic moved.
At Celtic, he has been part of a squad that won the Premiership, League Cup and Scottish Cup in 2024-25, as well as reaching another Scottish Cup final. He was linked with a move away from Celtic in January 2025, a reminder that his position in the squad has not always looked entirely settled.
His current market value is around £1.5m, according to Transfermarkt. Nawrocki’s career to date is still shaped mainly by his Legia Warsaw spell, with Celtic the next stage rather than the finished story.
