Tomáš Pešír’s engagement in Baník Most as club director lasted less than three months. The FAČR vice-chairman will no longer continue in the north of the country, the third league club officially confirmed this in a statement. Jan Skýpala, who was originally supposed to leave Most, remains in the position of club boss.
Tomáš Pešír took up his position in Most at the beginning of October. The plans he had with the third-league organization, however, will not come to fruition. His original contract expired at the end of 2025, and the current FAČR vice-chairman agreed with the club that he would not continue in Most.
Baník Most-Souš explained the changes in the club statement. “The general meeting did not elect a new statutory representative of the club at Friday’s meeting. Jan Skýpala therefore remains in the positions of chairman and director of the club in FK Baník Most-Souš. His successor Tomáš Pešír will no longer work at the club by mutual agreement.” wrote the club.
“Unfortunately, due to the unclear situation in the club between Most and Souš, I do not have the opportunity to set up a new concept in the club and start the planned changes in cooperation with the city. That is why I came to Most in September – to move the club from quality youth development to adults. I wish the club nothing but the best in the future,” said Pešir.
In a statement, the club mentioned the strained relations between representatives of the city of Most and Baník Souš. “The termination of cooperation with Jan Skýpala and the engagement of Tomáš Pešír was supposed to bring about the settlement of relations between these representatives and move the club forward. However, at the last General Meeting, a new statutory representative was not elected, who was supposed to be the deputy mayor, Mr. Václav Zahradníček. He was supposed to replace Jan Skýpala in this position,” said the Mostek club.
City support for the third league: Twenty million
After joining Most, Pešir, among other things, dismissed sports manager Petr Glaser, the former captain of the team, which was resented by rock fans. “I wanted to know the reason, but I was told that there is none. They say he wants his man here. So I signed the notice and went again,” Glaser said, among other things, in an interview with Sport in October.
Pešír nodded to the engagement in Most also because his position as vice-chairman of FAČR is not financially evaluated and he was also looking for another job. The chairman of the association, David Trunda, is to receive 250,000 crowns per month, the previous head of the association, Petr Fousek, was also paid.
Remuneration for the vice-chairmen (Pešir, Zdeněk Grygera) will only be approved by the general meeting next spring. The introduction of their salary was already planned by the new management of the association after this year’s elections, but due to legal ambiguities, the statutes will probably have to be changed at the upcoming general meeting.
Jan Skýpala, who left the position at the end of September 2025 after an agreement with the city, returns to Pešír’s position in Most. He worked as a statutory representative (chairman) in the club. “It is logical that in this difficult period he should continue in the position of club director. I am glad that he supported our club in difficult times and was willing to take responsibility for the further direction of the club in the current situation,” said the mayor of the city, Marek Hrvol.
The city of Most has already approved the support of football in Most for the year 2026, it will provide the club with 20 million crowns. “Financing is secured. Thanks to this, we want to have a significant and transparent share in the management of the club, which some people don’t like,” added Hrvol.
