The European Championships in Germany are coming up! Viktoria Plzeň has four representatives in today´s nomination for the preparatory camp - Tomáš Chorý, Pavel Šulc, Robin Hranáč and for the first time also Lukáš Červ.

They´ve had a great season. They took part in Viktoria´s historic European Cup run, they drove their team to third place in the league and to the final of the domestic cup. Now, the four of our players have been rewarded when the coach of the national football team, Ivan Hašek, nominated them for the preparatory camp for the EURO in Germany.

"I think the boys deserve it and it is a great reward for them and a great honour for our club. It is a reward for a successful season and the quality work of our entire team. I wish the boys to stay healthy during the preparation and fight for their chance in the national jersey," said Adolf Šádek, CEO and Chairman of the Board of the club.

VOICES OF THE VICTORIANS

TOMÁŠ CHORÝ

"I am of course happy to have made this nomination. I will do my best to help the team as much as possible. I am also happy to represent our club in the national team."

ROBIN HRANÁČ

"This is a huge honour for me and another step I wanted to achieve. I will work hard in preparation and fight for participation in a prestigious tournament full of stars and I would like to compete with them. I believe that this experience will also help me and push me again."

PAVEL ŠULC

"Huge honor! We had a good season with Viktoria and this is such a bonus for me, which I really appreciate. I will work hard during the training camp and I want to show what I have in me. Playing at the EURO is a big dream of mine."

LUKÁŠ ČERV

"The news of the nomination caught me on a short holiday in Italy, where I am with my family. We were on the beach watching the nomination press conference. How does it feel for me? Unbelievable, I don´t even know what to say. My girlfriend and my mom were crying, we´re all overjoyed. When I think that in the autumn I was still in Liberec...then came the big transfer to Plzeň and I think I played a very solid spring with Viktorka. I´m in heaven now, I couldn´t have imagined it in my wildest dreams. It´s a great motivation for me again and I´ll fight for a chance. And most importantly, I believe that the EURO will be a success for the whole team!"
