QB ORIGINALS | BÁRA VOTÍKOVÁ — First Czech Woman at Arsenal. On & Off the Pitch

From a small village near Pilsen to Slavia Prague, PSG, Tottenham and making history at Arsenal. In the fifth episode of QB Originals, we sit down with Barbora Votíková, one of the most influential Czech players of her generation.

We talk about her journey to the top of European football, from the Champions League with Slavia to competing in France and England, and what it takes to stay there as a goalkeeper. Bára also opens up about one of the toughest moments of her career, an ACL injury that took her off the pitch and tested her mentally as much as physically. She shares what it really takes to come back, rebuild confidence and keep going when everything slows down.

Beyond football, we explore what set her apart early on, building her own content and personal brand long before it became the norm. From filming her own videos to collaborating with global names, she was among the first to show that players can shape the game both on and off the pitch. From breaking barriers abroad to becoming the first Czech woman at Arsenal, her story is about going first and keeping going.
