The 23-year-old has made his name with Slovan Liberec where he has spent his whole career, and made a few notable appearances in this season’s Europa League where he captained his team to a 3-0 defeat of Qarabag and a 2-0 away defeat to Greek side PAOK.
Pokorny made his debut for the national side on August 31st 2016 where he played 45 minutes in 3-0 friendly win against Armenia, and was also on the bench for the Czech’s game against Northern Ireland, but didn’t make a appearance.
From all reports it seems that Montpellier have found a good young player in Pokorny, and the former French champions are confident he can be the defensive player they’ve been looking for.
