Martin Vitík, born on the 21st of January 2003, hails from the scenic landscapes of the Czech Republic. Now aged 23, his main profession in the world of football is a solid defender, primarily taking up residence as a central defender for Serie A's Bologna. Standing tall at 6ft 3in (1.92m) and anchored by a weight of 13st 3lb (84kg), the man is a formidable presence on the field. The number 41 jersey is his chosen garb on match days. Off the turf of domestic challenges, Vitík has been seen donning the colours of the Czech Republic national team.
As of now, his current market value skirts around the region of £8.5m, according to data provided by Transfermarkt.
Tracing Vitík's journey into professional football, it began in earnest in July 2018, when he joined Sparta Prague, competing in the First League of his native Czech Republic. Following his commencement as a trainee, the beginnings were certainly promising. His debut season of 2020 - 2021 witnessed him making an impression in 17 first team appearances in league matches.
Vitík continued to hone his skills at Sparta Prague over the next few seasons. In the 2021-2022 season, he impressed with 17 first-team appearances and 2 goals. By the 2022-2023 season, Vitík was making his mark with 22 first team appearances. The next season, 2023-2024, he peaked with 27 first-team appearances and 4 goals, and maintained this momentum in the 2024-2025 season with 26 first-team appearances and another 4 goals.
In July 2025, the opportunity for a change of scene presented itself, and Vitík transferred from Sparta Prague to the Serie A team Bologna in Italy. The transfer fee hovered around the mark of £9.5m.
Presently, in the 2025 - 2026 season at Bologna, Vitík has participated in ten first team appearances in league matches.
