Łukasz Piszczek (Polish pronunciation: [ˈwukaʂ ˈpʲiʂt͡ʂɛk]; born 3 June 1985) is a Polish footballer who plays for the German Bundesliga club Borussia Dortmund as a right back, having previously played for Hertha BSC and Zagłębie Lubin. He has been capped over 50 times by Poland at international level from his debut in 2007, and was included in the nation's squads for three European Championships.
Piszczek started his career as a striker. In 2001, he joined Gwarek Zabrze, where he broke many goalscoring records at junior level and in 2003 won the Polish youth championship. In 2004, he became the top scorer at the U-19 European Championships (along with Turk Ali Öztürk).
Hertha BSC was attracted by this performance and promptly signed him, then immediately loaned him out to Zagłębie Lubin. With Zagłębie, he won the league championship during the 2006–07 season. At Zagłębie, he played mainly as a left winger in 4–3–3 formation (with Wojciech Łobodziński on the right wing and Michał Chałbiński in the center), although he was often utilized as a centre forward. He scored 11 goals in 2006–07 season, becoming the club's second best scorer after Chałbiński (13 goals).
In the fall of 2007, Hertha recalled the player. Piszczek scored his first goal in the Bundesliga on 26 April 2008 to earn a point against Hannover 96.
