On 12 April 2025, Mikołajewski made his debut for Parma as a 72nd-minute substitute for Gabriel Strefezza in a 1–1 draw to Napoli in the Serie A.
On 6 August 2026, he joined Swiss club Luzern on loan for the remainder of the season. Mikołajewski scored his first career hat-trick in a 5–1 victory over Grasshopper on 19 September.
International career
Mikołajewski is a youth international for Poland, playing with the under-16 and under-17, taking part in the 2023 European championship with the latter.
He was a standout with Poland under-18s in September 2023 during a friendly tournament in Croatia that his team eventually won, scoring five goals in three games, most notably a hat-trick in a 4–0 win against Austria.
Mikołajewski started all three games played by the under-17s at the 2023 FIFA U-17 World Cup.
