Michal Sadílek (Czech pronunciation: [ˈmɪxal ˈsaɟiːlɛk]; born 31 May 1999) is a Czech professional footballer who plays as a midfielder for Eredivisie club Twente and the Czech Republic national team.[1]

Club career

[edit]

Sadílek made his professional debut in the Eerste Divisie for Jong PSV on 4 November 2016 in a game against Helmond Sport.[2] On 7 August 2021, he joined FC Twente on loan.[3] On 19 April 2022, the deal was made permanent as he signed a two-year contract.[4]

International career

[edit]

Having represented Czech Republic at all youth levels, Sadílek was called up to the Czech senior squad by coach Jaroslav Šilhavý in May 2019.[5]

In May 2021, he was announced as one of the four additional players for the rescheduled UEFA Euro 2020, if Ondřej Kúdela failed to appeal against a ten-match ban from UEFA due to an alleged racial slur.[6] Eventually, Sadílek got priority over Lukáš Kalvach, Patrizio Stronati and David Pavelka and filled the last vacant place in the nomination.[7]

Sadílek debuted with the senior Czech Republic national team on 4 June 2021, in a friendly 4–0 loss to Italy.[8]

Sadílek was selected in the 26-man squad for the UEFA Euro 2024 on 28 May 2024,[9] but had to withdraw before the tournament after injuring his leg when falling off his tricycle.[10][11]

Personal life

[edit]

His brother Lukáš is also a professional footballer.[12]
