No one dropped out of the nomination that coach Jaroslav Šilhavý announced on Tuesday. The squad now has twenty-three names and is complete.
“We already announced last week that I will mainly wait to see how the injuries of Michal Sadílek and Tomáš Holeš develop. In the end, unfortunately, we cannot count on either of them. We filled the vacant spots on the roster with players we know well, and we know what to expect,” explained coach Jaroslav Šilhavý.
Midfielder Alex Král went on loan to Bundesliga side Schalke in the summer, for which he initially played seven competitive matches.
Forward Stanislav Tecl is currently the best scorer in FORTUNA:LIGA. He scored the same number of goals in eight matches for Slavia.
Offensive midfielder Adam Vlkanova, who made his international debut this June, is one of the most prominent faces of Pilsen, who leads the league and also plays in the Champions League.
The national team will conclude its premier appearance in the elite group of the UEFA Nations League in the upcoming matches. He is currently third in the table – a point ahead of Switzerland. The top three teams in each group will remain among the best teams in Europe.
The home match against Portugal, which will be played in Fortuna Arena (home stadium of SK Slavia Prague), is sold out long in advance.
