Tomáš Čvančara, born on 13 August 2000 (age 25), is a Czech striker whose career has moved from Sparta Prague through Borussia Mönchengladbach and on to Celtic. A tall centre-forward at 6ft 3in (1.90m), he has generally been used through the middle rather than as a wide forward.
His most productive league season came with Sparta Prague in 2022-2023, when he scored 12 goals in 24 appearances. That form helped take him into the Bundesliga with Borussia Mönchengladbach, where he continued as a striker but did not arrive at Celtic as some unknown project from the fringes.
Celtic signed Čvančara from Borussia Mönchengladbach in January 2026. He was part of the squad that won the 2025-2026 Premiership, giving him an immediate domestic honour in Scotland rather than a settling-in year with nothing attached.
His market value is listed at around £1.5m by Transfermarkt. His career to this point is that of an established Czech forward who made his name at Sparta, moved into one of Europe’s stronger leagues, and then joined Celtic midway through a title-winning season.
