# János Szabó (footballer)

## Career
### Siófok

Szabó was loaned to Siófok in the Nemzeti Bajnokság I on the last day of the 2011 summer transfer window. In an interview, he said he felt uncomfortable at first, when he found out he had to go, but he looks back with a good heart, because he's not sure he would have had as many opportunities in Paks as he did in Siófok at that time.

On 15 May 2024, he won the 2024 Magyar Kupa Final with Paks by beating Ferencváros 2–0 at the Puskás Aréna.
