“Adam Hlozek is a player who plays as a number ten and he also poses a big goal threat coming in from the wing,” according to Bayer 04 sporting director Simon Rolfes. “His versatility, power and, above all, his finishing will provide more options in our attacking game.”
The right-footer finished third in the league with Sparta Prague last season, he played in the Czech cup final and was involved in 23 goals in 33 league matches (9 goals and 14 assists). “It’s great for me to have been signed by one of the best clubs in the Bundesliga,” declared Hlozek, who made his first team debut at the age of 16 and he has already clocked up 105 top-flight appearances. “I’ve regularly watched Bayer 04 Leverkusen over the past few weeks. The team plays wonderful football. Being part of this team fills me with great hope and expectations.”

Bayer 04 can go through to the Round of 16 of the UEFA Champions League for the ninth time tonight, 24 February (kick-off: 21:00 CET) and be in the top 16 clubs in Europe. A good omen: Leverkusen have progressed to the next round after winning the first leg in 20 of their 22 knockout rounds in European competitions to date. For their part, Greek record champions Olympiacos rested several players for last weekend’s league fixture ahead of the play-off second leg at the BayArena and will now do everything in their power to turn the tide with their usual aggressive and high pressing. The discussions on Werkself radio are likely to be just as intense as the battle on the pitch, with commentator Florian Bechholz welcoming honorary captain Stefan Kießling and goalkeeper Mark Flekken.
