In 2011, Krmenčík was promoted to the first team and in April of the same year he made his debut in a game against Příbram. In the 2011–12 season, he went on loan to Banik Sokolov, scoring his first professional goal.

In the following four seasons, Krmenčík went on loan spells at Zenit Čáslav, Vlašim, Baník Ostrava and Dukla Prague in the Czech leagues. He returned to Viktoria Plzeň in the second half of the 2015-16 season and his career began to gain momentum.[3] Krmenčík scored three times in nine games, winning a place in the team's starting XI.[4]

Viktoria Plzeň

By January 2020, Krmenčík managed to impress many playing for Viktoria Plzeň. In 124 matches, he scored 62 goals, made 16 assists and won four trophies. He was also the league's top scorer in the 2017–18 season.

A ligament rupture in the 2018–19 season kept him out of action for a long time, but he remained impressive when he returned. His displays convinced Club Brugge of his potential.
