Václav Černý (born 17 October 1997) is a Czech professional footballer who plays as a winger for Jong Ajax and AFC Ajax.[1]

Club career

Černý was born in Příbram.[1] He joined the youth ranks of AFC Ajax in January 2013 from FK Příbram. He made his professional debut at Jong Ajax on 13 March 2015 in a Eerste Divisie game against VVV Venlo. He replaced Robert Murić after 78 minutes in a 1-0 win.[2]

On 15 August 2015 he made his first appearance in the Ajax first team against Willem II. He scored his first goal on 26 November 2015 in the 2015–16 UEFA Europa League against Celtic, in which Ajax won 2-1.[3]

International career

Černý was called up to the Czech Republic under-21 team in August 2015, at the age of 17. This call-up drew media attention as he would become the youngest player to represent the team, if he played in the matches against Malta or Latvia in early September.[4] He made his U21 debut on 4 September 2015, starting in the 4–1 win against Malta.[5]
