Dominik Szoboszlai: Hungary's exceptional talent

Sport is full of enthusiasm and passion, and in no doubt the bettors are enjoying the new available cashout option on iLOT Bet, giving them so much keenness and a reason to cash out big!.


Szoboszlai is a multiple league and cup winner. He helped Red Bull Salzburg to league and Austrian Cup doubles in 2018-19 and 2019-20, with his form during the second of those campaigns earning Dominik the accolade of Austrian Bundesliga Player of the Season. 

 

That trophy habit continued following his switch to Leipzig in January 2021, with Die Roten Bullen crowned DFB-Pokal winners in each of the past two seasons. And it was a clinical strike from Szoboszlai that sealed the second of those German cup triumphs, as he found the bottom corner in the 85th minute of last month’s final against Eintracht Frankfurt to confirm a 2-0 victory. From last minute winners to debut goals and free-kick extravaganza, the 20 year old already has a plethora of extraordinary moments under his belt. In a way he was ordained to play football even before he was born. For Dominik, football was in his veins.

 

The midfielder has completed a permanent transfer to the Reds from RB Leipzig, following Alexis Mac Allister in bolstering Jürgen Klopp’s squad ahead of 2023-24. When it comes to Dominik Szoboszlai, things are rarely ordinary.
 

 

Szoboszlai certainly has an eye for goal scoring at least nine goals in all competitions in each of his six seasons as a professional, posting remarkably consistent numbers during that period for Liefering and Salzburg in Austria, then Leipzig in Germany. That tally was achieved despite him missing the second half of the 2020-21 campaign due to an adductor injury.

 

Szoboszlai already has experience of playing at Anfield. The Hungarian got his first taste of the stadium almost four years ago, when he was part of the dangerous Salzburg side Liverpool clashed with twice during the Champions’ League group phase of 2019-20. Szoboszlai played 71 minutes of the first of those meetings, which Klopp’s Reds ultimately won 4-3 in a thriller at Anfield. He started the reverse contest in Austria, too, featuring for all but the closing moments as Liverpool secured a 2-0 victory that confirmed their progress to the knockout stage. 

 

Szoboszlai was appointed skipper of his country’s senior team in November 2022, having been chosen for the role by Coach Marco Rossi and his national teammates. Two years earlier, he had produced a stunning moment with a 92nd-minute winner as Hungary came from a goal down to defeat Iceland and qualify for Euro 2020. Sadly, though, Dominik was unable to participate in the final tournament.
