Vratislav Gresko biography


Vratislav Greško (born July 24, 1977 in Tajov) is a Slovakia football (soccer) player who is currently playing for the German team Bayer 04 Leverkusen. His preferred position is left-back, although he has also been used as a left-sided midfielder or defender during his career. He is an attacking full-back widely known for his crossing.

Club career

Initially a player at Bayer Leverkusen for the start of the 2000-01 season, he moved to Internazionale Milano F.C., signed a four-year contract, but only stayed for eighteen months between November 2000 and July 2002, for whom he made 41 league appearances. He most famously made a mistake at last match of 2001-02 season.

Out of favour at his next club, Parma A.C., he made just two full appearances during the 2002-03 season.

Meanwhile, Blackburn Rovers F.C. manager Graeme Souness was looking for left-sided defensive cover. Gresko, who initially played on loan to Blackburn for four months (January-May 2002-03 in English football) was given a full contract in August.

During the 2004-05 in English football campaign, he suffered cruciate ligament damage in December which led to him not playing for the rest of the season. He then did not make a single appearance during the 2005-06 in English football season, and was released when his contract expired in July.

In July 2007 he signed as a free agent with Bayer Leverkusen. He returned to the club after six years and signed a 2-year contract.

International career

Greško has appeared 32 times for the Slovakia national football team, scoring 2 goals. Scored his first goal in the A-team on May 14, 2002 in the friendly against Uzbekistan.
