Kamil Kosowski, (born August 30, 1977 in Ostrowiec Świętokrzyski), is a Polish footballer playing for A.C. ChievoVerona and the Poland national football team.

Kosowski gained renown in Poland after his performances for Wisła Kraków, in the 2002-03 UEFA Cup.

His career waned after moving in 2004 to Kaiserslautern in Germany, where Kosowski refused to learn the German language and failed to acclimatize. Kamil had a brief resurgence with a loan to Southampton where he played the 2005-06 season on a year-long loan and was recalled to the Polish national team. Kosowski has appeared 46 times for Poland, scoring four goals.

He was selected to the 23-men national squad for the 2006 FIFA World Cup finals held in Germany.

Kosowski now plays at A.C. ChievoVerona, but technically he is still a Wisła Kraków player out on loan. This is due to an unusual 4 year loan deal between Wisła and Kaiserslautern.

Panathinaikos FC has reputedly^{[citation needed]} tried to buy Kosowski.
