“We have had Ralfs in our sights for a long time. He is a quality full-back who has spent four years in the extra league and knows the Czech environment. I believe that he will help us raise the quality of the defensive ranks,” said club CEO Pavel Hynek. “In addition to defensive tasks, we count on him going forward as well. I believe that he will confirm his performances and be an asset to our team,” added coach Vladimír Růžička.
