The Paks footballers traveled by bus to the Czech Republic on Tuesday, where a historic club match awaits them on Thursday evening: they will play against Mladá Boleslav in the Konferencialiga playoffs, and the winner of the duel will advance to the main table of the third European Cup series. THE National Sport Online according to news published on Wednesday, Péter Szappanos, for whom an offer from Saudi Arabia was received, did not last with the others. The one-time national team goalkeeper has already traveled to the Middle Eastern country for the mandatory medical examinations upon transfer.

According to the news, an offer has also been received from Belgium for the 33-year-old goalkeeper, but if the doctors find everything in order and the Paks club receives an offer that cannot be refused, Péter Szappanos will continue his career in Saudi Arabia. In the summer of 2023, the netminder came to Atomváros from Budapest Honvéd, who were relegated from NB I, whose goal he defended in 31 league matches, nine of which he did not concede a goal. He had indelible merits in the fact that the 2023/2024 season was written in the history book of Paksi FC. After thirteen years, the club once again won a silver medal in the top division, won the Hungarian Cup for the first time, and thus once again entered the international cup stage, where a duel separates the team from the main table.
