Three uncapped players called up for Euro 2016 qualifiers

Czech soccer team manager Pavel Vrba has called up three-uncapped players for Euro 2016 qualifiers against Kazakhstan and Latvia in early September. Midfielders David Pavelka of Liberec and Jiří Skalák of Mladá Boleslav and Liberec goalkeeper Tomáš Koubek have been selected after impressive starts to the new domestic season. Defender Tomáš Kalas, who is currently at England’s Middlesbrough, has been recalled. Several regulars are either unavailable or not being selected at their clubs. The Czechs are second in their qualifying group behind Iceland.
