committed suicide at the age of 31, the country's
football association has confirmed.
Midfielder Rajtoral made 19 appearances for the
Super Lig side after completing a switch from
Viktoria Plzen, where he won four Czech First
League titles in eight seasons.
He made 14 appearances for the Czech Republic
and was a member of their squad for Euro 2012,
during which he played twice.
The Czech Republic Football Association confirmed
the news in a statement in which it expressed "its
deepest condolences to all relatives".
Gaziantepspor president Levent Kizil was quoted
by Sporx: "Unfortunately I can confirm that the
news of suicide is true.
Saddened to hear of the death of Czech
international František Rajtoral. Our
condolences to his family,
@ceskarepre_cz & @GaziantepsporSK

"His team-mates were concerned after Rajtoral
didn't participate in today's training session. He
was a proper person with good spirits. He didn't
seem to have any problem. I really don't know why
he did such a thing."
