In the program (Souček starts speaking from time 34:45) revealed that he received an offer from Saudi Arabia, where many stars from top European clubs went in the summer, half a year ago. But he didn’t even think about her. “I immediately refused. A lot of people I mentioned tapped their foreheads and asked why. But this is just not for me. Neither America nor China. I would rather return to the Czech league. If it was Slavia, it would be an even bigger plus,” said Souček.
In the autumn, there was speculation about the interest of Inter Milan. He wouldn’t defend Italy? “If offers came from Italy, from Germany, these countries would attract me. But as for the other world… If I come back to Saudi Arabia, one side is the family. From this point of view, it would be difficult there. The other side is football. I don’t know how much longer I will be able to play it, but I want to enjoy it in top quality. I don’t want somewhere where I will have the highest contract, but seven hundred people will go to the matches. I’m enjoying the English league, which I’ve been devouring since I was a little boy,” added Souček, who has a new competitor in West Ham since Friday.
The Hammers have announced on their website that they have signed Kalvin Phillips from Manchester City on a six-month loan. “We are very happy to have acquired a player of Kalvin’s quality, we have been looking for him for a long time. He is a national team midfielder with a lot of Premier League experience. I believe he will increase the quality and competition in the team,” said coach David Moyes.
Phillips came to the Etihad in the summer of 2022 from Leeds for 45 million pounds (approximately 1.3 billion crowns), but the European vice-champion from 2021 did not make it into the starting line-up. He has played just 89 minutes in the Premier League this season.
