Sebastian Boenisch (Polish pronunciation: [sɛ.ˈbas.ti̯an ˈbɛ.ɲiʂ], Template:IPA-de; born 1 February 1987 in Gliwice) is a Polish footballer who plays for the Polish National Team, mainly as a left back.
Career
Boenisch made his professional debut for Schalke 04 on 11 February 2006. He was substituted on in the 86th minute, in a 7–4 home win against Bayer 04 Leverkusen. His only other appearance that season was in a 2–1 win against RCD Espanyol in the UEFA Cup.
On 1 September 2007, he moved to Werder Bremen.
As of the end of the 2011–12 season, Boenisch is a free agent having let his contract run down and played that poorly during the UEFA Euro 2012 that VfB Stuttgart withdrew their contract offer, citing lack of performance as the reason for their action.
On 6 August 2012, Boenisch was handed a trial at English Premier League side Stoke City and started a pre-season friendly for the club against Torquay United and Yeovil Town. However his trial was unsuccessful and he was not offered a contract by Stoke.
On 4 November 2012, he moved to Bayer 04 Leverkusen .
International career
On 14 November 2006 Boenisch earned his first cap for the German under-20 team in a 4–1 victory against Austria. He made his debut for the German under-21 team in 2007. The Polish-born player hesitated whether to cap for Poland or Germany. Later, there were rumors that Boenisch would receive a call up from Leo Beenhakker for the match against Greece but he was not listed in the official call ups. Boenisch said that he was not interested in capping for Poland anymore, and was concentrating on playing for the German U-21 team. He won the 2009 European Under-21 Championship with Germany.
In November 2009, there were rumors that Poland's new national football team coach Franciszek Smuda was interested in the player but Boenisch said that he had made no decision. Due to lack chances for a future call up to the German senior squad, on 20 August 2010 Boenisch finally decided to play for Poland and has received his first call up for matches against Ukraine and Australia He made his debut for Poland against Ukraine on 4 September 2010. In May 2012, Boenisch was called up for the UEFA Euro 2012. He played his first competitive match for Poland in the opening game of the tournament against Greece on 8 June 2012.
