Koltai signs for Videoton FC

The midfielder has made 12 appearances for Hungary and has signed a 3 year deal.

Tamas Koltai was born on the 30th April 1987 in Győr. He came through the youth ranks at Győri ETO and became a first team squad member in 2007. He has gone on to make 162 NB1 appearances for Győr in the 8 seasons that followed. He was called up to the national team on the 24th May 2008 in a match against Greece. Koltai has gone on to make 8 more appearances for his country.

"It is a great honour for me that a club that won the league title and made it to the Hungarian cup final, and has serious aims in the European stage would want to sign me. It is also a serious challenge for me, which is why I have chosen Videoton FC. It will be tough to break through to the starting 11, as the squad is very strong. This could also prove to help the team as competition will end up with better performances. I have already joined in with pre-season training, and we will have a super cup final against Ferencvaros next week. It is not only a key match but a great preparation for the champions league matches. I have naturally followed the CL draw, and the aim cannot be anything other than to win and go through. I do not really know our potential opponents but the view of the team is the same, which is that we will have to focus on our own game if we are to go through" - commented Tamas Koltai to vidi.hu.
