He is finalising a transfer, though, and isn't among the Plzen squad that is travelling to Glasgow to face Rangers.
Adolf Sadek, chairman of Plzen's board and general manager of the club, lifted the lid on the situation.
He said [fcviktoria.cz]: "Pavel has received the green light from the club to transfer abroad.
"All the details, including a medical examination, are being finalised in these hours. If everything goes well, he will transfer to a renowned European club."
