Club Career
Blšany 1999-2001
He had made his debut as a 17-year-old for FK Chmel Blšany in 1999.
Sparta Prague 2001-2002
Cech really came of age in the 2001/02 campaign following a €700,000 transfer to AC Sparta Praha. The young custodian won a first-team place four matches into the Czech season, and proceeded to set a national record by going 855 minutes without conceding a goal. Just for good measure, he began Sparta's UEFA Champions League campaign by shutting out holders FC Bayern München, and was not beaten until Matchday 5.
Rennes 2002-2004
After just one season at the Letná, Cech joined Stade Rennais FC in July 2002 for a reported fee of €5m. Not one of France’s glamour clubs, the Czech was virtually ever-present as Rennes preserved their Ligue 1 status and reached the Coupe de France semi-finals. Played all but five of Rennes' games as they finished ninth.
Chelsea 2004-
In January he agreed a summer move to Chelsea FC for €10.3m, signing a five-year contract.
