Dominik Holec (born 28 July 1994) is a Slovak football goalkeeper who plays for Czech First League club Sparta Prague.[1]

Club career[]

FC ViOn Zlaté Moravce[]

Holec made his Fortuna Liga debut for ViOn Zlaté Moravce in an away loss on 26 February 2017 in a match against his mother club Žilina. Holec conceded four goals in a 4-1 defeat, being beaten by Miroslav Káčer, future international Samuel Mráz, season's top scorer Filip Hlohovský and Lukáš Jánošík.[2]

MŠK Žilina[]

Holec was released from Žilina, as the club had entered liquidation, due to a coronavirus pandemic.[3]

Sparta Prague[]

On 28 May 2020, it was announced that commencing the following season, Holec would become the goalkeeper of Czech club Sparta Prague. It was also revealed, that Sparta had previously been interested in Holec, prior to his release from Žilina, and he had signed for the Czech side despite interest from unnamed Belgian and Spanish teams. Holec had cited the approach of Tomáš Rosický as a strong factor in the decision to join the club.[4]

International career[]

Holec enjoyed his first inclusion in the wider squad of Slovak senior national team in November 2019, when he was listed as an alternate by Pavel Hapal for two qualifying UEFA Euro 2020 qualifying fixtures against Croatia and Azerbaijan.[5] Holec actually went on to join the squad, hence being called-up from the alternate position, as Dominik Greif could not be involved fully in preparations ahead of the Azerbaijan fixture. Holec therefore enjoyed his first call-up, but did not manage to make an appearance.[6] Holec was also additionally called up in September 2021, when Dušan Kuciak tested positive for COVID-19,[7] but again failed to make an appearance.

Honours[]

Raków Częstochowa
