"We know Matej very well. He was the top center forward when it comes to faceoffs last season in Slovakia, which played a big part in signing him. He has plenty of experience and can play in multiple positions. His scoring numbers may not be the best, but he is incredibly valuable for the team thanks to his hard work and other qualities. He is very excited to join Znojmo," says sports manager and head coach Miroslav Frycer.
