Market

Puskas Akademia say no — this time

The offer from Haladas for Bence Zsolt Vékony was heard out and sent back the same day. First bids are rarely meant to succeed; they are meant to find out how loudly the door closes.

Squad

Wojciech Golla in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Puskas Akademia this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad

Words at Puskas Akademia training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Zsolt Nagy is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

Player ratings

One of those days for Dániel Lukács

There is a version of this player everybody suspected was in there, and on this evidence it is. 8.31, and no argument anywhere in the ground.

Squad

Georgy Arutyunyan signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Georgy Arutyunyan commits to Puskas Akademia for another 4 years.

Squad

The manager makes an example of Artem Favorov

“If you cannot run for the shirt, somebody else will wear it.” No name was used and none was needed; every player in that room knew who it was for.

Match

Honours even between Puskas Akademia and Ujpest

1‑1, and both dressing rooms will call it two points lost. A draw that asked plenty of questions and answered none of them.

Market

Puskas Akademia put Artem Favorov up for sale

The list is a quiet document with a loud meaning. Artem Favorov may talk to anybody who asks, and everybody at the club understands what that means.

Player ratings

Nobody could get near Zsolt Nagy

Successful dribbles: 11. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

The terraces

Puskas Akademia sell a favourite for $610.0K

The accountants will call it good business and they will be right, which is not the point anybody outside the boardroom is making. Michael Okeke was one of the reasons people came, and $610.0K does not replace that by itself.

Player ratings

Age has not caught Wojciech Golla yet — 7.94

At 34 he is supposed to be managing his minutes. Instead he was marked 7.94 and looked, for ninety minutes, exactly like the player everybody remembers.

Squad

Zsolt Nagy signs on for more

“Some decisions take a long time. This one took ten minutes, and most of that was finding a pen.” Zsolt Nagy and Puskas Akademia agree another 2 years.

Squad

Tempers go at Puskas Akademia

Zsolt Nagy was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Market

Michael Okeke moves on

Paksi pay $610.0K, and the deal is done. The number reads well on a balance sheet; whether it reads well on the pitch is next season's question.

Match

Diosgyor take the points off Puskas Akademia

Beaten 1‑2, and beaten fairly. The manager kept his words short afterwards, which was probably wise.

Squad

No hiding place for Dániel Lukács

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Dániel Lukács, and the manager let it.

Market

Haladas join the queue for Bence Zsolt Vékony

Add another name to the list: Haladas have asked the question everybody in the game has been asking about Bence Zsolt Vékony. The answer from Puskas Akademia has not changed — yet.

Market

Talks stall between Puskas Akademia and Wojciech Golla

“We are a long way apart, and pretending otherwise helps nobody.” Neither side is close, and the calendar is not on the club's side.

In brief
