Patrik Hrošovský (Slovak pronunciation: [ˈpatriɡ ˈɦrɔʂɔwskiː]; born 22 April 1992) is a Slovak professional football player who plays as a midfielder for Genk and the Slovakia national football team. Previously he was a frequently fielded player and a captain at Viktoria Plzeň becoming the Czech champion with the side on three occasions.

Club career

FC Viktoria Plzeň

Hrošovský debuted for Viktoria Plzeň on 12 November 2011 at the 2011–12 Czech Cup.[2] against Baník Sokolov Having become a regular starter for multiple seasons as well as being praised for his performances at the 2018–19 UEFA Champions League, he was attracted interest from La Liga or the Premier League – Levante, Getafe, and Huddersfield Town were all named as possible future clubs.[3] However, the winter transfer window, Hrošovský failed to make a transfer.[4] During January 2019 transfer window, West Ham was also cited as a contender for his services,[5] but it was dropped as Manuel Pellegrini did not consider altering the squad during the season.[6]

Genk

2019–20 season

On 5 June 2019, whilst preparing with the national team for a double fixture against Jordan and Azerbaijan, Hrošovský was said to almost complete his transfer to Genk. Verbal agreement was reached despite issues arising, as Viktoria agreed to let him leave during the summer transfer period to help the club qualify to the Champions League group stage. Genk was said to oppose this arrangement, but the transfer was more than an agreement, as Plzeň agreed with Wolverhampton Wanderers on a two-year loan with an option to buy. This was seen as a replacement for Christián Herc, who had made a good impression during his loan in DAC Dunajská Streda.[7] However, the following day, Hrošovský clarified during a press conference prior to the match against Jordan. Although negotiations took place, there was no certainty of a transfer and that he was still a footballer for Viktoria Plzeň.[8]

Nonetheless, this arrangement was confirmed on 8 July 2019, as Hrošovský signed a four-year contract with an option for an additional year.[9] He made his Jupiler Pro League debut against multiple-time champions Anderlecht Brussels, in a home fixture on 23 August 2020. He completed the last, roughly, 20 minutes, as a replacement for Jakub Piotrowski. Genk secured a narrow 1:0 win with a second-half goal by Mbwana Samatta.[10]

Hrošovský had recorded five starts for Genk in the UEFA Champions League. He played in both matches against Napoli and Red Bull Salzburg. He played against Liverpool at Anfield only. However, Genk collected a sole point for a goalless draw against Napoli and was knocked out with a score of 5:20.[11]

On top of that, Hrošovský made sole seasonal appearance in the Croky Cup in a Round of 16 loss against Royal Antwerp. Genk were knocked out after a penalty shoot-out. Hrošovský was replaced by Théo Bongonda in the second half.[12] As an occasional scorer, Hrošovský had to wait until 1 February 2020 for his first goal at Genk. In a league fixture against Charleroi, he had beaten Nicolas Penneteau with a back-heel goal in the 39th minute, utilising a pass from Junya Itō. He was replaced by Kristian Thorstvedt in the second-half. Genk won 1–0.[13]

2020–21 season

Hrošovský missed the first three games of the season, not even making it to the bench with reports that he was no longer considered by the manager Hannes Wolf. He sidelined along with Joseph Paintsil, despite being acquired for considerable sums earlier.[14]

International career

On 19 November 2014, Hrošovský debuted for the Slovak senior squad as a starter in a 2–1 friendly victory against Finland.[15]
