On 29 February 2012, Rajtoral earned his first cap for the senior team of his country in the 1–1 draw with Ireland in a friendly match.

Club career

Early career

Rajtoral played for Příbram for a season before joining Baník Ostrava, with whom he signed a three-year contract in 2005.[2][3] He made his debut in European competitions in the 2005–06 UEFA Cup while playing for Ostrava.[2]

Viktoria Plzeň

He joined Viktoria Plzeň from Ostrava in 2009 in a deal which involved the exchange of striker Adam Varadi in the other direction.[4]

Rajtoral played in the inaugural Czech Supercup in 2010 against Sparta Prague, being one of two players to be sent off as his team lost the match.[5] He scored his first goal of the 2010–11 season in October 2010 against Mladá Boleslav, but his team lost the game 4–3.[6]

Rajtoral played the second half of the 2011 Czech Supercup, a match which Plzeň won on penalties against Mladá Boleslav. He replaced Marián Čišovský in the 46th minute, in a match which finished 1–1.[7]

Hannover

In January 2014 Rajtoral joined German Bundesliga club Hannover 96 on loan for the remainder of the season with an option to make the transfer permanent.[8] Hannover passed on that option though and Rajtoral returned to Plzeň for the start of the new season.

International career

Rajtoral took part in the 2007 UEFA European Under-21 Championship. He played in all three of his nation's matches at the tournament.[2]

He made his senior debut on 29 February 2012 in a friendly match against Ireland, a game which finished 1–1.[2] In May 2012 he was named in his country's 23-man squad for the Euro 2012 tournament.[9]
