The woman who put her own career on hold for Jakub Kiwior

1 min read

Behind Jakub Kiwior’s rise to the top of European football stands one person whose belief in him was so strong that she gave up her own business to support him full-time.

The 26-year-old defender has played for some of the biggest names in the game, including Arsenal and FC Porto. He has also earned the right to wear the Poland shirt, a honour he still holds today.

Sacrifice for a teenage talent

When Kiwior was still a teenager, the source of his support reached a point where she decided to pause the business that had been her life’s work. She stepped back so she could devote herself fully to backing the young player as he developed.

The story highlights how much a single figure can shape a footballer’s path. For Kiwior, that unwavering faith helped turn early promise into a career that has taken him from Poland to the Premier League and Portugal.
