Daniel Mąka (born 30 April 1988) is a Polish professional footballer who plays as a midfielder. He is also a member of the Widzew Łódź's academy training staff.

Club career

Mąka scored his first goal in the Ekstraklasa on his debut, the first game of the 2008–09 campaign, which was also the first "derby" for Mąka, against Polonia's fierce rivals Legia Warsaw. The match ended in a 2–2 draw. Only five games later, after coming off the bench in the 57th minute, he scored his first hat-trick against Polonia Bytom in a 4–0 victory.

In the summer of 2010, he was loaned to I liga club Termalica Bruk-Bet Nieciecza.[1] He returned to Polonia one year later, but couldn't fit into first team and was later moved to reserve team. After that, he decided to cancel his agreement by mutual consent.[2]

In August 2011, he joined Polonia Bytom on a two-year contract.[3]

On 20 January 2021, Daniel Mąka joined the liga okręgowa's reserve team of Widzew Łódź and became a member of the club's academy training staff. He signed a contract till the end of June 2021, with an option to extend it for one year if the reserves were promoted to the IV liga.[4] At the conclusion of the 2023–24 season, Mąka was released by the club as a player and received an offer to remain in the academy as a coach.[5]
