Filip Novák (born 26 June 1990) is a Czech professional footballer who plays as a left-back in the Süper Lig for Fenerbahçe.[1] He holds the Fortuna Liga record for most goals scored in one season by a defender with 11 goals in the 2014–15 season.[2]

Club career[]

Novák began playing football for his home team in Přerov. He moved to Zlín in 2007 and then signed for Jablonec in 2011.[3]

Zlín[]

Novák played in the Czech premier league for the first time against Příbram[4] when he was 18 years old. Then, he played only one whole match before his team was relegated to the second league in the end of the season 2008–09. It was an advantage for him because there was a less strong competition so he climbed to the top players of the team gradually.

In July 2011, Novák moved to Jablonec. He scored his first goal in the Fortuna Liga against Dukla Prague on 1 October 2012.[5] On 17 May 2013, Novák won the Czech Cup with Jablonec, after playing he whole final match and scoring in the penalty shootout.[6] He won the Czech Supercup against the league champion, FC Viktoria Plzeň with Jablonec on 12 July 2013.[7] By winning the Czech Cup in the previous season, Jablonec qualified for the UEFA Europa League where they eliminated Strømsgodset IF in the Third Qualifying Round[8] before being eliminated by Real Betis[9] in the Play-off Round.
