Career

Graiciar spent time on loan at Arsenal's youth setup. He went on loan to Liberec from Fiorentina in January 2017.[2] He made his senior league debut for Liberec on 11 March 2017 in a Czech First League 1–0 loss at Plzeň. He scored his first league goals on 19 August in Liberec's 3–0 away win at Mladá Boleslav, when he scored twice.[3]

On 7 January 2022, Graiciar signed a two-year contract with Canadian Premier League side York United, with a club option for a further year.[5][6] However, he suffered an injury in preseason and never appeared for the club, with him and the club ultimately opting to mutually terminate the contract.[7]
