This month England and Scotland will both host Group D clashes with Coufal’s nation.
And he will come up against Phil Foden sporting the same bleached hairstyle Paul Gascoigne had in 1996.
But the West Ham defender, 28, said: “We want similar success.
“And we respect the past particularly the team of 1996.”
Coufal would love to replicate the kind of success Karel Poborsky and his Czech mates enjoyed at Euro 96.
But the West Ham full-back knows it will be extremely tough to do so as “football has progressed so much since then”.
Czech Republic were the surprise package 25 years ago, going all the way to the final before losing in extra-time thanks to Oliver Bierhoff’s golden goal.
