Michal Šmarda (born 31 January 1971) is a Czech former football midfielder and current coach.

Club career[]

He played in the Czech First League, making over 300 appearances for clubs including SK Hradec Králové, FK Viktoria Žižkov and SK Sigma Olomouc.[1][2] He won the 1998–99 Czech First League with AC Sparta Prague. Šmarda played the final match of his professional career in May 2008 and subsequently moved into coaching.[3]

Coaching career[]

Šmarda became a coach at Hradec in the Czech 2. Liga in 2008 immediately after ending his playing career.[3] Due to injury problems in the first-team squad, Šmarda played the full 90 minutes in a friendly match for Hradec Králové in February 2012 against FC Astra Ploieşti.[4] In May 2012, Šmarda followed Hradec Králové manager Václav Kotal to FK Baumit Jablonec, becoming assistant manager there.[5] In September 2013, Šmarda joined Zbrojovka Brno alongside Kotal. The duo left the club in June 2016.

In July 2017, Šmarda returned to Hradec as an assistant coach.[6] Šmarda then moved to Vysočina Jihlava on 2 January 2018 under manager Martin Svědík.[7] In November 2018, Svědík was fired and Šmarda took charge of the team on interim basis until 6 December 2018.[8] Later in the same month, Šmarda joined Slovácko once again under Svědík.[9]

In February 2020, he was reunited with Václav Kotal at Sparta Prague.[10] The duo left the club one year later, in February 2021.[11]
