Club career

Kadlec made his debut in the Gambrinus liga on 25 October 2008 for AC Sparta Prague against 1. FK Příbram. He scored his first league goal at the age of 16.[2] Kadlec had a trial at Liverpool's academy in 2007.[3] In November 2012 Kadlec fractured his skull in a collision with Martin Nešpor during Sparta Prague's match against FK Mladá Boleslav.[4]

On 18 August 2013, Kadlec joined Eintracht Frankfurt for an undisclosed fee, signing a contract due to expire in the summer of 2017.[5]

After a short loan at Letná he transferred to Danish side FC Midtjylland during the 15/16 season. However, he decided to return to Sparta in the summer transfer window of 2016.[6] He signed a four-year contract with the club.[7]

On 29 September 2016, with Sparta Prague, he scored twice in the 3–1 win against Internazionale in Europa League.[8][9]

In February 2020, Kadlec announced his retirement from playing due to persistent knee problems.[10]

International career

On 12 October 2010, Kadlec made his first appearance for the Czech Republic national team against Liechtenstein and scored on his debut, becoming the youngest goalscorer in the Czech Republic national team history.[11] He was voted the Czech Talent of the Year at the 2010 Czech Footballer of the Year awards. Later in the year he made his debut for the under-21 team, also marking it with a goal. He represented the team at the 2011 UEFA European Under-21 Football Championship.

gollark: Thus, unconscious bias fixed?
gollark: See, people complain about unconscious bias a lot. So I thought "well, ignoring all the issues about consciousness in software or whatever, surely it would be better if it didn't have this". And the "conscious" well-documented bias outweighs any possible *un*conscious bias loads!
gollark: Well, if I was being really clever, I would CLAIM to remove the autobias code, document it as unbiased, and make it appear unbiased, *but* have a mode where it enables bias *only* when asking for one randomly picked item.
gollark: What about it?
gollark: Other bots might be biased and NOT tell you.
