He began his senior career as a footballer by joining Hertha Berlin in 2004.

He was also selected for four tournaments during his time with the national team, playing in three UEFA European Championships and the 2018 FIFA World Cup.

He confirmed his retirement from international football in 2018 following the conclusion of the 2018 FIFA World Cup. However, in November 2019 he made one more competitive appearance for the national team, informally dubbed his farewell game. In 2021, he decided to return to Goczałkowice-Zdrój, the Polish club where he started his football career as a junior. From 2024 to 2025, he served as an assistant manager of Bundesliga club Borussia Dortmund. In mid-2025, he re-joined Goczałkowice-Zdrój before being appointed manager of GKS Tychy in November that year. He left GKS by mutual consent in March 2026.
