Majchrzak is a youth product of Warta Zawiercie, AF Silent Dąbrowa Górnicza, Rozwój Katowice and Legia Warsaw.[1] On 23 September 2022, he joined Serie A club Roma on a season-long loan, with an option to buy.[2]

Having originally been assigned to their under-19 team, Majchrzak made his professional debut for Roma on 12 March 2023, as a late substitute in a 4–3 Serie A home loss against Sassuolo.[3] In April of the same year, he was part of Roma's under-19 squad that won the Coppa Italia Primavera.[4][5]

After returning from Italy, he extended his contract with Legia on 19 July 2023 and was sent on another season-long loan, this time joining Ekstraklasa newcomers Puszcza Niepołomice.[6] He scored his first top division goal on 13 April 2024, opening the score in a 2–1 win over Lech Poznań.[7]

Majchrzak was called up to a training camp with the Poland under-19 national team in February 2023.[8]

In June of the same year, he was included in the Polish squad that took part in the 2023 UEFA European Under-19 Championship in Malta.[9]
