Cisak is a product of the Leicester City Youth Academy, where he played alongside the likes of Joe Mattock, Andy King, Max Gradel, Ashley Chambers, Eric Odhiambo and fellow keeper Carl Pentney, where he was a key member of the side that won the 2006–07 Premier Academy League winning side.

Cisak signed his first professional contract on May 5, 2007, signing a one year deal alongside Andy King, Max Gradel, Carl Pentney and Eric Odhiambo.[2] He joined Oxford United on 25 September 2007, as a replacement to Chris Tardif.[3][4] However on 22 October he returned to Leicester having failed to make a 1st team appearance for Oxford.[5]

On January 10, 2008 he moved on loan again joining Tamworth on loan until the end of the season.[6]

Cisak was named in the match squad for the first time as Leicester beat Crewe Alexandra 2–1 at The Walkers Stadium, however he was an unused substitute.[7]

On June 8, 2009 Cisak signed a six-month contract extension at Leicester keeping him at the club until December 2009.[8]

Accrington Stanley

He joined Accrington Stanley in July 2010 after being released by Leicester at the end of the 2009/10 season. He made his debut for the club in a Carling Cup match on 10 August 2010 against Doncaster Rovers.[9]

International career

Cisak was eligible to play for either Poland or Australia due to holding duel citizenship.

On Monday October 6, 2008 Cisak made his debut for Australia U20 in their 3–1 victory over China playing the full 90 minutes.[10] On July 21, 2009, Cisak was again called into the Australia U20 squad by manager Jan Versleijen for the game against Argentina U20.[11] He has since gone on to make an additional three appearances for the Under 20s and was named in the squad for the 2009 FIFA U-20 World Cup in Egypt.[1]
