Wilczek played for Carpi in 2015, before making the move to the danish club Brøndby IF half a year later in January 2016. He became captain of Brøndby in 2019 following the departures of Johan Larsson and Benedikt Röcker. He is also the club's all-time leading Superliga-goalscorer, having scored a total of 71 goals in the competition. After a short stay at Göztepe, he made a highly controversial move to Brøndby's archrivals FC Copenhagen in August 2020, signing a three-year contract.

In October 2016, Wilczek won his first cap for Poland, having previously played for the under-21 team.
