Raków's 2-1 victory over Widzew Lodz was not enough to bridge the gap, leaving them finishing as runners-up. Lech Poznań has now claimed the title for the ninth time in their storied history, marking their first championship since the 2021-22 season. Jagiellonia Bialystok, a perennial competitor with several Portuguese players, completed the season in third place.
Elsewhere, Legia Warsaw, under the guidance of Gonçalo Feio and boasting Ruben Vinagre and Claude Gonçalves, drew 2-2 with Stal Mielec. Despite the draw, they managed to secure fifth place with 54 points, four behind fourth-placed Pogon Szczecin and seven adrift of third. Legia, however, claimed the Polish Cup and qualified for the Europa League qualifiers, also advancing to the Conference League quarter-finals.
Sources confirm that Lech Poznań has become the champions of the 2024-25 Ekstraklasa season, although the exact points total to win the title remains unspecified in the current information. The upcoming 2025-26 Ekstraklasa will mark the league's 100th season.
