Patrik Schick is a tall and technically accomplished Czech centre-forward with a fine touch and an eye for the spectacular. After making his name in Italy, he found his most productive form in the Bundesliga with Bayer Leverkusen, where his finishing has been a potent weapon.

A key figure for the Czech national team, he scored one of the outstanding goals of the 2020 European Championship, an audacious effort from near the halfway line that confirmed his class.
