Michal Kadlec (born 13 December 1984) is a Czech footballer who plays for Fenerbahçe.[1] His father Miroslav was a former Czechoslovakia footballer who played eight years in the Bundesliga in Germany, due to which Michal spent his childhood there.
Early life
Kadlec was born in 1984 in Vyškov. After his father, Miroslav Kadlec, joined 1. FC Kaiserslautern in 1990, the family moved to Germany in the Kaiserslautern area. Kadlec learned German in kindergarten[2] before he went to school a year later. After his time in Grundschule, he went to the Gymnasium.
In 1998, Kadlec's father signed for FK Drnovice and so he returned to the Czech Republic.
Career
Kadlec started his professional career in 1. FC Slovácko and made his debut in a match against Baník Ostrava. In 2005 he joined Sparta Prague.
On 17 November 2007, Kadlec was called up to the Czech national team for a game against Slovakia, and made his debut in a 3–1 victory (scoring an own goal). He scored his first goal in a win over Scotland on 30 May 2008 (also 3–1).
On 16 June 2012, against Poland in the European Championship, Kadlec headed a ball off the line in the dying seconds, preserving the Czech National Team's spot in the quarterfinals of the tournament. The strike had beaten goalkeeper Petr Čech and appeared to be headed to the inside of the far post. Had a goal been scored Poland would have ensured a draw, and the Czech team would have been eliminated from the tournament.
On 14 June 2013 he joined Fenerbahçe for €4.5 million transfer fee in 3 years contract[3] worth €2.1 million per-season.[4]
