Antonín Kinský (born 13 March 2003) is a Czech professional footballer who plays as a goalkeeper for SK Slavia Prague.

Club career

[edit]

Kinský was raised in Tempo Prague. In 2017, he moved to Bohemians 1905. In 2018, at the age of 15, he moved to Dukla Prague.[1] He debuted for Dukla Prague at senior level in 2020, in a Czech National Football League match against FK Třinec. In 2021, he transferred to Slavia Prague.[2] He was repeatedly called the greatest Czech goalkeeping talent of his generation.[1][3]

Between 2022 and 2024, Kinský was on loan in MFK Vyškov and FK Pardubice.[3] He made his Czech First League debut on 22 July 2023, at the age of 20, in the Pardubice's 0–1 home loss against Bohemians 1905.[4] After the 2023–24 season, he originally decided not to extend his contract in Slavia.[5] After Jindřich Staněk, who was Slavia's number one goalkeeper, was seriously injured before the 2024–25 season, the club offered Kinský the position of number one goalkeeper.[6] Based on that, Kinský changed his decision and extended his contract in Slavia Prague.[7]

International career

[edit]

Kinský is a stable member of the youth national teams. He regularly plays for the Czech youth national teams since the U15 category.[2][8] He was originally in the Czech Republic U21 squad for the 2023 UEFA European Under-21 Championship, but he had to be replaced due to injury.[9]

Family

[edit]

Kinský is the son of Antonín Kinský, who is a successful former football goalkeeper. He is a former member of the Czech national team and had more than 100 league clean sheets.[1]
