Marek Saganowski (born October 31, 1978 in Łódź) is a Polish footballer (forward) who plays for English side Southampton on-loan from Troyes AC.
He began his career in 1994 with Polish club ŁKS Łódź and played there for six seasons, with brief loan spells at Feyenoord in 1996 and at Hamburg in early 1997. Neither of these loan spells was a particular success and he returned to ŁKS in the summer of 1997 to rebuild his career. In 1997-98 he made 22 appearances for ŁKS Łódź, but his career was interrupted by a serious motor-cycle accident in 1998 following which he was unable to walk. He slowly recovered from the injuries, and returned to playing for ŁKS Łódź, although his goal-scoring abilities did not recover initially.
He moved to Wisła Płock in 2000 and then to Odra Wodzisław the following year. He switched to Legia Warszawa in January 2003 where he returned to form, scoring 41 goals in 67 games. In 2005 he moved to Portugal's Vitoria Guimaraes where he notched 12 goals in his one season there. It was here that he was first known as Sagan. He has also appeared 15 times for the Polish national football team, scoring three goals.
At the beginning of the 2006-07 season he moved to French club Troyes AC for £1 million, but only made six appearances for them and failed to score, spending most of his time in the reserves.
He joined Southampton on loan on 30 January 2007 until the end of the 2006-07 season.[1] He has impressed for the Saints, scoring 7 goals in 10 games and looking to earn a permanent move.
