Patrik Schick, a key player for Czechia in the upcoming FIFA World Cup 2026, is celebrated not just for his skills on the field but also for his personal life. The 30-year-old forward, currently with Bayer Leverkusen in Germany, is married to Hana Běhounkova.
The couple exchanged vows in July 2020 at the picturesque Bon Repos mansion located near Prague. Hana, who is also 30, has been a steadfast supporter of Schick throughout his football career. They are proud parents to two children: their daughter Victoria, born in October 2020, and their son Nico, born in October 2021.
Their wedding was an intimate event held at a historic venue outside Prague. The family has since made Germany their home, where Schick continues to excel in the Bundesliga. He often expresses that his children, Victoria and Nico, are his greatest sources of happiness off the pitch.
As Czechia prepares for its return to the World Cup after a two-decade hiatus, Schick's dual role as a father and a forward has garnered significant attention.
Schick's football career has been characterized by remarkable consistency and talent. He gained widespread recognition during UEFA Euro 2020, where he was one of the top scorers, netting five goals alongside Cristiano Ronaldo. His stunning long-range goal against Scotland is regarded as one of the tournament's most iconic moments.
At 191 centimeters tall, Schick's physical stature gives him an advantage in aerial challenges. His skill in ball control, spatial awareness, and powerful left-footed finishing has established him as one of the most formidable strikers in Europe.
Czechia's qualification for the FIFA World Cup 2026 is a significant milestone, marking their first participation since 2006. Schick has been instrumental in this achievement, scoring eight goals in 14 qualifying matches. His recent performances have been impressive, including a goal in a friendly match where Czechia triumphed 3-1 against Guatemala.
At the club level, Schick continues to be Bayer Leverkusen's most dependable forward. He recently extended his contract until 2030 and has already recorded 16 goals and two assists in 28 Bundesliga matches during the ongoing 2025-26 season.
