Career
Starting out with Budapest outfit III. Kerületi TUE, he moved on to Sheffield United’s link club Ferencvárosi TC and then made a switch to their arch rivals Újpest FC. Máté’s talents then saw him transferred to Italian side Empoli F.C., but he failed to settle and switched back to his home land in July with Győri. Moment Club is REAC (Rákospalotai Egyettértés Atlétikai Club, Budapest ) - middle defender.
At 188 cm he is an imposing prospect but also blessed with all the qualities of a modern-day defender. The Hungary under 19 International is an A.C. Milan supporter, and lists Rossoneri stalwart Alessandro Nesta as his idol. Tottenham Hotspur F.C. are also said to be keen to have a look at Máté, but Steve Rowley brokered a deal first.
