Aleksander Dominik Kłak (born 24 November 1970) is a Polish former professional footballer who played as a goalkeeper. Kłak was a participant at the 1992 Summer Olympics, where Poland won the silver medal.[1]
After retiring from playing due to ongoing injury problems, he became a goalkeeping coach at Royal Antwerp and a bus driver for the Antwerp public transportation network.[2]
He also battled clinical depression after retirement, and says his recovery was aided, among others, by the help of the Capucin monks and his subsequent rediscovery of his faith.[3]
