As a striker, he scored only one goal in eight league matches for Sparta Prague. This bad form in front of goal lead to his playing as a wide midfielder instead. After this position change, he went on to score five goals in three matches.

FC Ufa

On 12 August 2016, he signed a 3-year contract with the Russian Premier League side FC Ufa.
