Chelsea goalkeeper Petr Cech has reportedly been voted the Czech Republic's player of the year for 2013 for the sixth time in a row.
Cech won the poll of players, coaches, football federation officials and journalists for the sixth year consecutively and seventh time overall, the report added.
According to the Daily Star, Cech had helped Chelsea win the Europa League last year but had failed to qualify for the World Cup in Brazil as part of the national team.
Arsenal's Tomas Rosick has been voted second behind Cech followed by SC Freiburg's midfielder Vladimir Darida at third position, the report added.
The report said that Czech manager Pavel Vrba, who led FC Viktoria Plzen to the lucrative Champions League 2013 for the second time in three years, has been voted as best coach.
