Jakub Jankto (pronounced [ˈjakup ˈjaŋkto]; born 19 January 1996) is a Czech professional footballer who plays for Serie A club Cagliari, and the Czech Republic national team. A versatile player, Jankto can play as a full-back, left midfielder or left winger.

Club career

[edit]

Jankto signed for Udinese from Slavia Prague in 2014 for a reported fee of €700,000.[2] Without making his league debut for the team, he went on loan to Serie B side Ascoli in 2015, debuting on 15 September in a Serie B 1–0 home win against Virtus Entella.[citation needed]

On 6 July 2018, Sampdoria announced that Jankto had joined the club on an initial loan deal with an obligation to make the transfer permanent for €15 million.[3] On 12 August 2018, Jankto scored on his debut for Sampdoria in a 1–0 Coppa Italia win against Viterbese.[4] Sampdoria later made the transfer permanent.[5]

On 20 August 2021, Jankto signed a two-year contract with La Liga club Getafe CF.[6][7] On 10 August of the following year, he returned to his home country after joining Sparta Prague on a one-year loan deal.[8]

On 15 July 2023, Jankto signed a two-year contract with option with Serie A club Cagliari.[9][10] Jankto made his debut with Cagliari on August 21, 2023 in a 0-0 draw against Torino FC. On March 3, 2024, Jankto scored his first goal for Cagliari in a 1-0 win against Empoli FC.

International career

[edit]

In March 2017, Jankto received his first call-up by coach Karel Jarolím to the Czech senior squad for two matches against Lithuania (friendly) and San Marino (2018 FIFA World Cup qualification).[11] The same year on 22 March, he debuted against the former opponent with his first goal that ended in a 3-0 victory.[12]

Personal life

[edit]

Jankto was in a relationship with model Markéta Ottomanská and they had a son.[13][14] They separated in 2021.[15]

On 13 February 2023, Jankto publicly came out as gay in a social media statement,[16] becoming the first active senior international men's footballer to do so.[17][18][19] Jankto's move received support from football clubs, footballers and other athletes.[20][21]

On 18 April 2023, Jankto was stopped by police near the Sparta Prague Strahov training center. He submitted to a breath test behind the wheel of his vehicle, but refused to take a drug test and a medical examination.[22][23] He also drove without a driver's licence, which had been taken away by the authorities earlier in 2023.[24][25] In response, club management initiated a meeting with Jankto, and it was decided that he will not participate in training sessions with the First Team.[26]
