The Sparta Prague midfielded announced on Monday that he is gay, saying he wants to live his life “in freedom”.
Czech Republic international and current Sparta Prague player Jakub Jankto announced on Monday that he is gay, saying he wants to live his life “in freedom”.
Jankto, who plays for Sparta Prague on loan from LaLiga side Getafe, made his international debut in 2017.
The 27-year-old has earned 45 caps for the Czech Republic and scored four goals.
“Like everybody else, I have my strengths. I have my weaknesses. I have a family. I have my friends,” Jankto said in a video posted to his Instagram account.
“I have a job which I have been doing it as best as I can, for years, with seriousness, professionalism and passion.
“Like everybody else, I also want to live my life in freedom. Without fears. Without prejudice. Without violence. BUT with love. I am homosexual and I no longer want to hide myself.”
The player has been supported by the Prague club who posted the video along with message: ‘No further comments. No more questions. You have our support. Live your life, Jacob. Nothing else matters’.
In May last year, Blackpool forward Jake Daniels announced he is gay, while Australian Josh Cavallo came out as gay in 2021.

Demon in human flesh. Shameless fool. Desiring your fellow man. All religions in the world reject such practise. Abomination. If you are on this app and you are gay or lesbianism repent and stop it.

Lol. Just accept it, it’s his life and his decision. Try to get out of that old world crap and learn to appreciate human being. If you can’t, get the fck out
