Career
Sikora is a youth product of Ruch Chorzów. He made his first-team debut on 5 May 2018, in a 0–2 loss to Puszcza Niepołomice[1]
He appeared in six matches in the Polish second-tier in the 2017–18 season, failing to score or provide an assist. His team finished last in the table and was relegated to the third tier.[2]
He played in nine matches in the following season, again without scoring or assisting, as Ruch finished last and was demoted to the fourth division.[3]
In the 2019–20 season, he appeared in seven matches, scoring one goal and providing one assist. The season was interrupted due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The following season, he played in 17 matches in the III liga, scoring three goals. His team finished first and returned to the division above. In February 2021, he tore his anterior cruciate ligament, sidelining him for an extended period.[4]
After recovering from injury, he played in 17 matches in the 2021–22 II liga season without scoring or assisting, and his team finished third and, after defeating Radunia Stężyca in the semi-final and Motor Lublin in the final of the promotion playoffs, was promoted to the I liga.[5]
In the 2022–23 season, he played in 28 matches in the I liga, scoring three goals and providing two assists. Ruch finished second and was promoted to the Ekstraklasa after a six-year absence.[6]
He made his Ekstraklasa debut on 23 July 2023, in a 1–2 loss to Zagłębie Lubin. In total, he played in 19 matches, scoring his first Ekstraklasa goal in a 3–0 win over Piast Gliwice. On 20 April 2024, during a home match against Widzew Łódź, he tore his anterior cruciate ligament again, ruling him out for the rest of the season. His team finished 17th and was relegated back to the I liga.[7]
