Club career

Chramosta grew up in FK Mladá Boleslav. His debut in the Czech First League was a 0–0 home draw against Viktoria Žižkov on 5 April 2009. In his first season Chramosta scored five goals in nine matches and was eventually voted "Revelation of the Year" at the Golden Ball awards.[1] He became a club legend after he played nine seasons for the club between 2009 and 2018, and with 49 goals became the best scorer in the club's first league history.[2]

In 2018, he transferred to FK Jablonec and also became one of the top scorers in this club's history with 37 goals (as of June 2024).[3]

International career

He was a member of the Czech under-21 team. He represented the team at the 2011 UEFA European Under-21 Championship.[4] He is the second best scorer of the U-21 team's history (as of 2024) with 12 goals.[5] In June 2012, Chramosta scored all 5 goals in a 5–1 win over Andorra U21.[6]

Chramosta was considered for the senior national team in 2012, but due to a serious knee injury and subsequent recovery, which slowed down his career, it did not happen.[7]
