Sparta has agreed with the Chinese club Henan Jianye F.C. on the terms of the transfer between the clubs for more than a week ago. Bořek ended his contract in China last weekend. And now he is finally our player after success of the negotiations between the player and the ACS leadership.
"I believe I will return to Sparta and I have not played the last match here," said Bořek more than two years ago after moving from the Sparta. After one season in China he went on loan to Philadelphia, now his words are fulfilled.
"We are very happy that we managed to get Bořek back to Letná. We needed an experienced player and a leader, which Bořek exactly is. However, we do not think that he can solve all the problems we have. He should fit into the team that we build. He offers his experiences to the teammates. This is very important for creating the team," said Sport Director Tomáš Rosický to the transfer.
"Of course I know Bořek very well from his previous time in Sparta. He always belonged to the key players... He is the leader, he can direct the teammates on the field," told coach Zdeněk Ščasný to transfer of Bořek Dočkal. They celebrated together the quarterfinals of the UEFA Europa League three years ago. "The important thing is that he has been training with us for a while. He played very well in Philadelphia and also in the national team. I believe he will continue after returning to Sparta,"adds the coach.
During his first engagement in Letná between 2013-2017 Bořek Dočkal played in 95 matches in the Czech league, scored 24 goals and added 44 assists.
We're glad you're one of us again, Bořek!
