Club career
editPetržalka and Trnava
editHaving started his club career in the Slovak Second League at Petržalka, where he played for a year and a half, Schranz joined Spartak Trnava at the age of 18 in January 2012.[4] He made his league debut against Banská Bystrica on 5 May of the same year.[5] Schranz also made his European competition debut and in July 2014 scored twice in a UEFA Europa League qualifier against Scottish Premiership club St Johnstone.[6][7] In the middle of the 2014–15 season Schranz headed to Czech side Sparta Prague on loan, but made no league appearances for the side before returning to Trnava.[8] He continued to play for Trnava until the end of the 2016–17 season, playing 125 matches and scoring 25 goals overall.[9]
Czech arrival
editSchranz returned to the Czech Republic, joining Dukla Prague in summer 2017.[10] He scored 8 goals in 40 appearances for Dukla, leaving the club mid-way through his second season after losing his place in the starting lineup. Schranz played in Cyprus for AEL Limassol in spring 2019, where he played seven matches for the club without scoring. He then returned to the Czech First League, signing a year-long contract with České Budějovice.[9] After good results, Schranz signed a three-year contract with Jablonec in July 2020.[11] He continued his good form from the previous season, scoring 13 goals in 28 league games for Jablonec.[6]
Slavia Prague
editOn 31 May 2021, Schranz joined Slavia Prague on a long-term contract in advance of the 2021–22 season.[6] The same year on 30 July, in only his second match for Slavia, Schranz scored a hat-trick in a league win over Teplice.[12]
International career
editOn 4 September 2020, Schranz debuted for the senior Slovakia national team in a 3–1 loss against the Czech Republic at the 2020–21 UEFA Nations League, where he also scored his first goal.[13]
In May 2021, Schranz was included in Slovakia's final squad for the rescheduled UEFA Euro 2020 tournament,[6] but did not make an appearance.[14]
Euro 2024
editIn June 2024, Schranz was called up to represent Slovakia at UEFA Euro 2024.[15] He scored the only goal of their opening match as they achieved an upset 1–0 victory over Belgium.[16] He scored again in a 2–1 loss to Ukraine in their second match, making him the first ever Slovak player to score more than one goal at the UEFA European Championship.[17] Schranz scored his third goal of the tournament in the round of 16 match against England. His first-half goal put Slovakia 1–0 up, a lead they held for most of the match, although England equalised in injury time and subsequently scored again in extra time for a 2–1 England win, sending Slovakia out of the tournament.[18] His three goals at the tournament earned him the golden boot award, alongside five other players.[19]
