“Like anyone else, I have my strengths and weaknesses, I have a family and friends. I have a job that I have been doing to the best of my ability with professionalism, passion, and seriousness.” He added, “Like anyone else, I also want to live my life freely, without fear, prejudice, or violence, but with love.“

Jakub Jankto becomes the second active male professional footballer in the UK to publicly come out as gay after Blackpool’s Jake Daniels, who made the announcement last year. The last known case of a UK men’s professional footballer coming out was Justin Fashanu in 1990. Prior to Jankto’s announcement, Adelaide United player Josh Cavallo was the only openly gay male top-flight professional footballer in the world.

Sparta Prague stated that Jankto had openly discussed his sexual orientation with the club’s management, coach, and teammates some time ago, and that everything else is part of his personal life. The club expressed their support by saying, “You have our support. Live your life, Jakub.”
