Ondřej Kúdela (Czech pronunciation: [ˈondr̝ɛjˈkuːdɛla] ; born 26 March 1987) is a Czech professional footballer who plays as a centre-back for Liga 1 club Persija Jakarta and the Czech Republic national team.[2] [3] [4] He previously played for Slovácko, Sparta Prague, Mlada Boleslav, Slovan Liberec, and Slavia Prague. Kúdela also had loan spells at Kladno and Kazakh club FC Ordabasy.
Club career
[edit ]Kúdela came up through the youth system at Slovácko and made his debut appearance for the first team in 2005.[5]
In 2009, Kúdela was signed by Mladá Boleslav as a replacement for the outgoing Jan Rajnoch. He remained at the club for eight seasons, except for a half-year loan spell at Kazakh side Ordabasy in 2014.[6] [7] [8] He was part of the Mladá Boleslav team that won the 2010–11 and 2015–16 Czech Cups, coming off as a substitute at the eighth minute of the former final.[9]
In January 2017, Kúdela signed a contract with Slovan Liberec for two-and-a-half years.[10]
In 2018, Kúdela transferred to Slavia Prague along with head coach Jindřich Trpišovský.[11] With the club, he won a total of three league titles and cups each, as well as one Supercup.[citation needed ]
In June 2022, Kúdela joined Indonesian Liga 1 side Persija Jakarta.[12] On 23 July 2022, he made his league debut as a starter in a 0–1 loss against Bali United.[13]
International career
[edit ]In March 2019, Kúdela debuted for the Czech senior squad during a friendly match against Brazil.[14]
Controversy
[edit ]On 18 March 2021, Kúdela was accused of racial abuse Rangers on Glen Kamara during a Europa League Round of 16 match.[15] [16] Kúdela denied the accusation and claimed he was assaulted by Kamara in the tunnel after the match, and Slavia Prague lodged a criminal complaint while criticising Rangers' handling of the situation.[17] On 14 April, he was officially found guilty of racial abuse by UEFA and was banned for ten UEFA matches, ruling him out of playing any game in the upcoming Euro 2020 championship; Kamara meanwhile was handed a three-match ban for assaulting Kúdela in the tunnel after the game.[4]
Kúdela appealed his ban,[18] but the appeal was rejected by UEFA on 26 May 2021.[3] He began the process of appealing the ban to the Court of Arbitration for Sport, with a statement being scheduled for April 2022.[19] However, one month before the hearing was due to take place, Kúdela dropped his appeal and formally apologised to Kamara.[19] Kamara's lawyer said that his client was happy that the matter had now been closed.[19]
Style of play
[edit ]Kúdela is normally played as a centre-back, though he has also been used as a defensive midfielder.[20] At the end of the 2021 season, he was voted as the best defender in the Czech league.[21]
