The young defender expressed his excitement about the move, telling the club’s official website, “I’m excited to be playing here. I can’t wait to step out onto this beautiful stadium and leave my mark. I believe in my abilities, my talent and the direction I’ve set for myself. The leap from the second division is incredible, I thank God and myself that I can be here.”
Management Endorsement
Slavia Sporting Director Jiri Bilek praised the new signing, saying:
“A young player with great potential. He has excellent running skills and great parameters. We believe he can challenge the competition on the right side of the defense.
