Alberto Marí is the division’s leading scorer
5 goals in 5 games, and nobody else in the league close to it. Ujpest have the man every defence in the division is planning around.
Scoring charts1 Nov 2026
Marked 7.98 across it, 5 goals and assists between them, and no serious argument from anybody else in the division. MTK Budapest have had the whole benefit of a month somebody else will spend the summer trying to buy.
Scoring charts1 Nov 2026
The division's brightest kid this month plays for Puskas Akademia
Martin Kern was marked 6.96 and had a hand in 2 goals. Every recruitment department in the country now has a file open, and the club that has him knows exactly what that means.

“I have given everything here and I need a new challenge.” The request is formal, and the relationship will never be quite the same again.
Scoring charts1 Nov 2026
The division’s top provider is Nejc Gradišar — 7.61
4 assists across the month from a Ujpest player marked 7.61. Somebody has to open the door before anybody walks through it, and nobody in the league opened more.
Scoring charts1 Nov 2026
Veljko Birmančević is the division's best-marked player — 8.03
The chart that catches everybody a goal tally never will: the centre-half who was immense for four weekends, the holding midfielder nobody outside his own ground has heard of. 8.03 across 3 matches for Ferencvaros.
Scoring charts1 Nov 2026
A productive month at MTK Budapest — 4 goals from 5 appearances, and a place near the top of the charts.
Scoring charts1 Nov 2026
4 in 5 for Fehervar. Nobody outside his own ground is talking about him, which tends to be true of everybody on this list except the man at the top of it.

Milán Tóth keeps the pressure on
4 goals in 5 appearances for Vasas leave him among the month's leading marksmen.

3 in 5 for Ujpest. Nobody outside his own ground is talking about him, which tends to be true of everybody on this list except the man at the top of it.

“We keep meeting, and we keep leaving the room with the same numbers we walked in with.” Another round of talks at Ferencvaros, another week without a signature from Veljko Birmančević.
Market1 Nov 2026
“The manager did not use many words, and he did not need to.” Kenneth Otigba has his answer from Vasas; what he does with it is the next window’s story.

Scoring charts1 Oct 2026
Nobody in the division bettered it last month: 6 goals in 2 appearances for Ferencvaros.
Scoring charts1 Oct 2026
Everybody in the division was measured and a Fehervar man came out on top: 8.18 across the month and 7 goal contributions. There is no serious case for anybody else.
Scoring charts1 Oct 2026
Csanád Vilmos Dénes is the month's best young player — 7.54
The award the rest of the division reads as a transfer rumour. 7.54 over the month and 4 goal contributions, from a Debrecen player whose price has just gone up without anybody at his club doing anything.
Market1 Oct 2026
“This is not anger. I have thought about it for months, and nothing that has happened lately changed my mind.” The request is on a desk at Diosgyor, and it is not being withdrawn.
Market1 Oct 2026
The offer was not close and it was refused without much discussion. Whether the second one is refused as quickly is another matter.
Market1 Oct 2026
“I know what people will say. I know what I want, and it is here.” Zamalek had the fee agreed and the shirt ready; they did not have the player, and now they will not.
Scoring charts1 Oct 2026
Nobody made more than Zsombor Gruber this month
2 assists, 8.18, and a Fehervar player who spent four weekends being the reason somebody else's name went in the paper. It is the least-rewarded skill in football and the easiest one to notice its absence.
Scoring charts1 Oct 2026
Veljko Birmančević is the division's best-marked player — 9.56
The chart that catches everybody a goal tally never will: the centre-half who was immense for four weekends, the holding midfielder nobody outside his own ground has heard of. 9.56 across 2 matches for Ferencvaros.
Market1 Oct 2026
Everything was agreed until it was not, and Gergő Szécsi reports back to Ferencvaros with a summer to forget. Neither club is saying who walked away from the table.
Scoring charts1 Oct 2026
4 appearances, 5 goals, and a place among the division's leading scorers for the month. Strikers measure a season in exactly these lines.

3 goals in 4 appearances for Ujpest leave him among the month's leading marksmen.

5 goals in 4 appearances for Fehervar, and a chart that would look very different if two of them had gone in off the post instead of past it.

The month closes with Veljko Birmančević out in front — 6 goals in 5 games, and Ferencvaros have the division's most feared finisher.
Scoring charts1 Sep 2026
Veljko Birmančević is the division's player of the month — 8.56
A club's paper reports this as one of its own being honoured. On this page it is what it actually is: a verdict on everybody who played, and it went to a Ferencvaros man on 8.56 with 12 goal contributions.
Scoring charts1 Sep 2026
Csanád Vilmos Dénes is the month's best young player — 7.30
The award the rest of the division reads as a transfer rumour. 7.30 over the month and 3 goal contributions, from a Debrecen player whose price has just gone up without anybody at his club doing anything.

The offer was not close and it was refused without much discussion. Whether the second one is refused as quickly is another matter.

“I have given everything here and I need a new challenge.” The request is formal, and the relationship will never be quite the same again.
Market1 Sep 2026
The last thing about a transfer that is still about the player is his signature on his own terms, and it is there. Ferencvaros have lost him in all but the paperwork.
Scoring charts1 Sep 2026
6 assists, 8.56, and a Ferencvaros player who spent four weekends being the reason somebody else's name went in the paper. It is the least-rewarded skill in football and the easiest one to notice its absence.
Market1 Sep 2026
“I want to be playing for trophies while my legs still let me.” Nothing in that sentence is a transfer request, and nobody at Ferencvaros heard it as anything else.

András Németh up among the month's scorers
A productive month at Puskas Akademia — 3 goals from 5 appearances, and a place near the top of the charts.

The general version of this complaint is that a player wants more. The specific version names the thing: he wants to walk out under floodlights against clubs from other countries, and he has stopped pretending otherwise.
Market1 Aug 2026
Arne Maier wants to know where this is going
“I want to win things, and I would like to do it here.” Nothing has been demanded and nothing has been threatened — but a boardroom at Ujpest hears a sentence like that exactly as it was built.
Market1 Aug 2026
11 months left and silence from upstairs — no offer, no talks, nothing for his people to answer. Clubs that let a calendar do their negotiating usually end up negotiating with the calendar.
