Club career
Kolář made his league debut when on loan at Varnsdorf from Slovan Liberec, in Varnsdorf's Czech National Football League 2–1 loss at Vlašim on 4 May 2013.
Slavia Prague
His 2018 transfer to Slavia Prague, worth €1 million, made him the most expensive goalkeeper signing in Czech First League history.[1]
On 26 July 2018, Slavia Prague announced that Kolář had signed a new contract until June 2022.[2]
On 29 August 2020, Kolář scored a last minute penalty in a 3–0 win against Příbram.[3]
During a Europa League game with Rangers on 18 March 2021, Kolář was stretchered off with a fractured skull after a reckless play by Kemar Roofe.[4][5] The incident resulted in Roofe receiving a four-match ban by the UEFA and Kolář being forced to wear a head guard for, according to Kolář, the remainder of his career.[6]
International career
He made his debut for Czech Republic national football team on 17 November 2019 in a Euro 2020 qualifier against Bulgaria.[7]
