Kryštof Daněk, born on 5 January 2003 (age 23), is a Czech attacking midfielder with LASK, where he wears the number 9 shirt. He is generally used through the middle rather than as a touchline player, with his value coming from arriving in scoring areas as much as from linking play.
His most productive league season so far came in 2023-24 at Pardubice, where he scored eight goals in 25 appearances. For a young midfielder, that was a useful return rather than a footnote, and it gave his career a bit of substance beyond the usual promise attached to Czech prospects.
At LASK in 2026-27, Daněk has made 17 appearances across all competitions and scored five goals. That includes two goals in nine Bundesliga appearances, two Champions League qualifying appearances, and a goal in three Champions League matches. He has also been involved at under-21 level for the Czech Republic in UEFA qualifying.
Daněk remains in the developing bracket: already an established professional, with a clear scoring thread from Pardubice into his LASK spell, but still at the stage where consistency will decide how far the career stretches.
