Jan Urban (Polish pronunciation: [ˈjan ˈurban]; born 14 May 1962) is a Polish retired footballer who played as a striker, and the current manager of Śląsk Wrocław.
His professional career was closely associated to Górnik Zabrze and Osasuna, and he also coached and worked with the latter club in various capacities.
Urban represented Poland at the 1986 World Cup.
Urban was born in Jaworzno, being one of six children in an underprivileged mining family. In his country he played for Zagłębie Sosnowiec and Górnik Zabrze, winning three national championships in a row with the latter to which he contributed with 38 goals combined, including a career-best 17 in 1987–88.
In the 1989 summer Urban moved to Spain and joined CA Osasuna, going on to be one of the Navarre team's most important players of the following decade. He scored 13 goals in 34 games in his second season to help the club finish in a best-ever fourth position in La Liga, thus qualifying to the UEFA Cup; this included a hat-trick against Real Madrid on 30 December 1990, in a 4–0 away win.
