Before Jan Kuchta joined Legia Warszawa, the 29-year-old Czech striker had attracted significant interest within the Ekstraklasa. Korona Kielce was among the clubs interested in the player. It was reported that half the league would have brought the player in on loan from Sparta. Media had previously reported that as many as five Ekstraklasa teams had considered a move for Kuchta. He ultimately transferred to Legia on a loan with an option to buy. He has 31 caps and 3 goals for Czechia. According to Transfermarkt, his current market value is €2.70m. In April 2026, transfer rumours stated Sparta Prague's initial asking price was €2.5 million. A later report suggested the club would accept an offer of €1.3 million. His most recent completed permanent transfer was from Midtjylland to Sparta Prague in July 2025 for a reported €2.0 million.
