Vratislav Greško (born July 24, 1977 in Tajov) is a Slovak football player who is currently playing for the German team Bayer 04 Leverkusen. His preferred position is left-back, although he has also been used as a left-sided midfielder or defender during his career. He is an attacking full-back widely known for his crossing.

Club career

Initially a player at Bayer Leverkusen for the start of the 2000-01 season, he moved to Internazionale, signed a four-year contract, but only stayed for eighteen months between November 2000 and July 2002, for whom he made 41 league appearances. He most famously made a mistake at last match of 2001-02 season.

Out of favour at his next club, Parma, he made just two full appearances during the 2002-03 season.

Meanwhile, Blackburn Rovers manager Graeme Souness was looking for left-sided defensive cover.

During the 2004-05 campaign, he suffered cruciate ligament damage in December which led to him not playing for the rest of the season.

In July 2007 he signed as a free agent with Bayer Leverkusen.
