Early career

The German, born in the capital Berlin, began playing at youth level from a very young age. He started at just eight years old with local team SG Stern Kaulsdorf before quickly being spotted as a potential star by professional club Union Berlin.

Having risen through the various youth ranks at the club, he broke into the reserve team and was also considered to be first team quality. After mostly playing with the reserves for a few years the striker began life at full professional level and made a name for himself in the 2016–17 season, when he played in 32 matches and scored 9 times. He scored 14 goals in the 2017–18 season.

Schalke 04

On 3 January 2020, Skrzybski was loaned out to Fortuna Düsseldorf for the rest of the 2019–20 season.[3]
