The Czech native admits to being a huge soccer fan—and not just every four years like the rest of us—collecting kits from Paris Saint-Germain, Belfast United, Barcelona and—of course—the New England Revolution, though he did have to recently swap out his Real Madrid one. “I’m a big Cristiano Ronaldo fan, and he just signed a contract with Juventus this summer. I bought a jersey right away,” says Krejci, who often warms up alongside teammates with a little two touch before games. “I’ve always wondered what would’ve happened—because I quit soccer because of hockey. Who knows?”
