Sparta Prague head coach Brian Priske has described Manchester United goalkeeper Matej Kovar as the "future of Czech football" following Saturday's 2-1 win over Hradec Kralove.
The 22-year-old, who joined United back in 2018, joined the Czech heavyweights in early-September on a season-long loan deal, in a bid to secure more regular first-team football. Prior to his departure, he put pen to paper on a new deal at Old Trafford up until the summer of 2025, highlighting how well thought of he is in Manchester.
Kovar has spent time on loan at both Swindon Town and Burton Albion previously, spending the second half of last season with the Brewers. However, his short-term stint with the League One side saw him make just six appearances.
