Jiří Rosický (born 11 November 1977 in Prague) is a Czech retired footballer who played as a midfielder.

Football career

Rosický joined local Sparta Prague's youth system at the age of ten. Abroad, Rosický played for Atlético Madrid's reserve team, spending four seasons in Segunda División and being relegated in his last as the main squad had also dropped down a level in La Liga. He then spent three years in Austria playing for SC Bregenz, where he scored three times in 63 matches.[1]

In his homeland he represented FK Baumit Jablonec in the 2003–04 Gambrinus liga.[2] He later played for Bohemians 1905 before retiring at the age of 29, due to persistent injury problems with both knees.[1]

Also a youth graduate at Sparta, he played several seasons with both Borussia Dortmund and Arsenal, being a longtime Czech Republic international.[3][4]
