Czech coach Petr Vlachovsky received a one-year suspended prison sentence last year and was banned by the Czech Football Association from coaching for five years after filming 14 players over a four-year period.

Now UEFA is banning him for life from football activities, writes the BBC.

The 42-year-old coached girls and women at FC Slovacko in the top Czech league for almost 15 years. He was arrested in September 2023 after police discovered the secretly filmed material online.

UEFA has also asked FIFA to suspend Vlachovsky. He has been the head coach of the Czech U19 national team and has been voted the country's best women's coach.
