Club career

Sparta Prague

Before joining Shakhtar Donetsk in the summer of 2004, Hübschman played for Sparta Prague, having started playing for the club's youth at age five and signing his first professional contract in 1998. Hübschman first came to prominence after joining Jablonec on a loan for the 2001–02 season. After gaining positive reviews, he returned to Sparta, where he was a regular in their 2002–03 UEFA Champions League run, playing 11 matches. In the 2003–04 season, he helped the club to the knockout stage of the 2003–04 Champions League and ended the season helping Sparta win the Czech Cup after beating fierce rivals Baník Ostrava 2–1.

Shakhtar Donetsk

After several successful seasons in his homeland, Hübschman joined Shakhtar Donetsk for a reported fee of €3 million transfer fee. Hübschman made an immediate impact, becoming a regular in the team and has won two league titles in his first two seasons and became a champion of the UEFA Cup in 2009.

During an April 2012 Ukrainian derby, Hübschman put in a superb, man of the match performance[1] in midfield to help his side defeat title rivals Dynamo Kyiv 2–0, a result which drew Shakhtar level on points in the league. The previous month, Hübschmann scored his first Ukrainian Premier League goal in two seasons to help the Miners defeat Illichivets Mariupol 2–1.[2]

Baumit Jablonec

In July 2014, Hübschman returned to Baumit Jablonec 13 years after his loan spell with the club, signing a three-year contract.[3]
