The Hungarian forward was from Budapest but moved to the Kansas City area as an exchange student where he was invited to play for Sporting KC's academy under coach Istvan Urbanyi, a fellow Hungarian.

"Our goal as an organization is to continue to develop players in our Academy that can contribute to our senior team," Sporting KC Manager Peter Vermes said via press release.
