Ákos Buzsáky (born May 7, 1982 in Budapest ) is a Hungarian football player . The technically gifted central midfielder and national player of his country is currently under contract with the Hungarian first division club Ferencváros Budapest . Before that, he had already been in the squad of the Portuguese top club FC Porto , but was unable to break through into the first team.

Athletic career

After learning to play football at Grund FC in 1986 and MTK Hungária Budapest and winning the Hungarian Cup for the latter club in 2000 , he joined the Portuguese club FC Porto in July 2002 under the then coach José Mourinho . From now on, the midfielder and playmaker saw less of a sporting development in the club than in the domestic U-21 team , which he later led as captain. In Portugal he was loaned to Académica Coimbra for the 2003/04 season within the SuperLiga . There he played eleven league games, then returned to Porto, where he mainly played games for the B-Elf in the third-highest division.

In January 2005, the English second division club Plymouth Argyle loaned him to the end of the 2005/06 season; decisive for the choice of the then coach Bobby Williamson was Buzsáky's good performance in an unofficial game against Torquay United . The newcomer quickly became a crowd-pleaser due to his technical skills and after the last match day the local supporters asked the club management by collecting signatures for a permanent commitment, which was ultimately realized with a new three-year contract and a transfer fee of around £ 225,000. Until October 2007 he spent changeable sporting times with the "Pilgrims", he did not always meet the high demands in his 105 competitive games - of which around a third were substitutions - and further leaps in development did not materialize. His peak was in January 2007, when he scored three goals and was selected for second division player of the month. When he announced in October 2007 that he did not want to extend his contract, which expired at the end of the season, the club immediately loaned him to second division rivals Queens Park Rangers and finally transferred him to “QPR” at the end of the year for a transfer fee of 500,000 pounds. There he signed a contract with a term of 2½ years.

After impressing with six goals in twelve games during his loan phase, Buzsáky quickly became a fan favorite in West London. However, hopes of stabilization of this high phase got a quick setback when he tore a cruciate ligament on November 11, 2008, which ended the 2008/09 season prematurely for him. It was only in the subsequent 2009/10 season that he celebrated his comeback and made it successfully with five goals in six league games within a month between September and October 2009.

Hungarian national team

Buzsáky played his first international match for the Hungarian senior team in qualifying for the World Cup on September 3, 2005 in his native Budapest against Malta . He scored the first goal for his home country on November 21, 2007 against reigning European champions Greece on the occasion of a European Championship qualifier, but some sources indicate his deflected shot as an own goal by Greek Kostas Katsouranis .
