The pair discussed the growth of the game in Czechia, with a specific focus on infrastructure and youth development projects.

Trunda, 49, was elected FAČR president in late May, taking the reins of an organisation that has succeeded in growing the grassroots game in recent years, reaching its target of 360,000 registered players across 3,500 clubs by the end of 2024.
