Slovak defender Martin Vitaloš became another reinforcement of the extra-league Pilsen, he agreed with the local leadership on a two-year contract. The club informed about it on its website.
“Martin passed the Slovak twenties and at a young age he has already played several matches for the adult national team. A player with great potential, which we watched for a while and talked about with a number of people from Slovakia, “says sports manager Tomáš Vlasák.
“It could be said that in a few years it could be the ‘new Black.’ He has the same parameters – a very tall boy, skates well and he is right-handed. “
“It can be said that in a few years it could be the ‘new Chero’ (Peter Ceresnak, editor’s note). He has the same parameters – a very tall boy, skates well and he is right-handed. We bet that he will play with us for a longer period of time, he will grow season after season and he will rank among the TOP bikes, “he adds.
21-year-old Vitaloš, who also played in the Swedish junior competition for Rögle for two years, comes from the team of the defeated finalist of the Slovak extra league. Under the baton of Antonín Stavjani, he spent the last two seasons in Nitra, scoring 20 points with a balance of 5 + 15 for 111 matches, including the playoffs.
Now he has signed up for Pilsen for two years. “I heard about the club that it works well with young people. And also that they like Slovaks and that they get enough space for you, like Peťo Čerešňák for the last time. I think it’s a good hockey address, “Vitaloš nods contentedly.
This is the sixth reinforcement of the West Czechs. Michal Houdek returned from Poruba, the Canadian Samuel Bitten also came with him, the back rows were reinforced by Jan Piskáček from Motor and Marek Baránek from Kladno, the attack was reinforced by Finn Aleksi Rekonen from Karlskoga, Sweden.
