## Club career
### Korona Kielce

Szelągowski came through the youth ranks of Korona Kielce, where he played since 2011, making his professional debut on 18 May 2019, coming on as a substitute in a 0–3 home Ekstraklasa defeat against Górnik Zabrze.
Despite scoring twice in five league games during the 2019–20 season, Szelągowski could not prevent his team's from relegating to I liga. He subsequently moved to Raków Częstochowa in September 2020.

### Raków Częstochowa

Szelągowski made his debut for Raków on the 2 October 2020, coming on as a late substitute in a 3–0 home Ekstraklasa win against Wisła Płock.
He scored his first goal for his new team on the 22 November 2020, coming on as an 83rd-minute substitute for Marcin Cebula, and helping his team obtain a 3–3 away draw against Lech Poznań. His goal was a spectacular one, driving the ball from his own half, dribbling past multiple opponents and beating the goalkeeper to score in stoppage time.
Szelągowski was part of the side that won the 2020–21 Polish Cup, appearing in the final as a late substitute, providing the assist for David Tijanić's winning goal four minutes after he came in, helping his team beat Arka Gdynia 2–1.

#### Loan to Warta

On 11 January 2022, as part of the deal that saw Szymon Czyż join Raków from Warta Poznań on a permanent basis, Szelągowski was loaned the opposite way until the end of the 2021–22 season.

#### Loan to Chojniczanka

On 3 January 2022, he was sent on loan to I liga club Chojniczanka Chojnice until the end of the season. On 16 March 2023, it was announced he had suffered a anterior cruciate ligament injury and would be sidelined for over a year, thus ending his season prematurely.
After missing the entirety of the 2023–24 campaign, he terminated his contract with Raków by mutual consent on 8 June 2024.

### Unia Swarzędz

On 3 January 2025, Szelągowski moved to III liga club Unia Swarzędz.
