(Reuters) - Czech Republic international Jakub Jankto, who received widespread support earlier this year after coming out as gay, has announced he will not play for Sparta Prague anymore this season due to concerns over his health.

Jankto came out in February, saying he wanted to live his life"in freedom". His announcement was met with support from Brazil's Neymar, the English Premier League, LaLiga and European soccer's governing body UEFA.

"In recent years, and especially the last year, so many things have accumulated around me that it is better to slow down and think about my health as well," the 27-year-old said in an Instagram post.
