Michał Janota (Polish pronunciation: [ˈmixaw jaˈnɔta]; born 29 July 1990 in Gubin) is a Polish professional footballer who plays as a attacking midfielder for II liga club Zagłębie Sosnowiec.

Club career[edit]

Janota joined Feyenoord in 2006 from UKP Zielona Góra. He made his debut for Feyenoord on 23 August 2008, coming on as a substitute against PSV Eindhoven in the Dutch Super Cup. His first appearance in the Eredivisie came on 31 August as a substitution against Heracles Almelo. He got on the scoresheet for the first time on 24 September with a brace against TOP Oss in the KNVB Cup.[1]

In July 2009, he joined Excelsior on loan in the Eerste Divisie. In June 2010, Janota left Feyenoord on a free transfer and signed a two-year contract with Eerste Divisie side Go Ahead Eagles, with an option for a third year.[2] The team reached the 2010–11 promotion playoffs but dropped out in the first round.

On 18 June 2012 Janota signed a one-year contract with Polish Ekstraklasa side Korona Kielce, with an option for further two years.[3]

In 2018, he signed for Arka Gdynia.[4]

In December 2020, Janota joined Australian A-League club Central Coast Mariners as a foreign player.[5]

In August 2021, Janota returned to Poland, signing a two-year contract with I liga club Podbeskidzie.[6] On 12 October 2023, whilst acting as the club captain, he was demoted to the reserves team for 'disciplinary reasons'. Six days later, he left Podbeskidzie by mutual consent.[7]

On 24 January 2024, he signed a six-month contract with Zagłębie Sosnowiec.[8]
