Péter Gulácsi
Péter Gulácsi (born 6 May 1990) is a Hungarian footballer who plays as a goalkeeper for Bundesliga club RB Leipzig and the Hungary national team.Gulácsi retained his spot as back-up to Pepe Reina after Brad Jones returned from international duty, with the Aussie goalkeeper going to Derby County on a loan transfer in March 2011.[14] He received a knee injury in a 1–0 defeat at Burnley on 31 December 2011 and was substituted for Adriano Basso on the 42nd minute mark, shortly after conceding a goal, scored by Martin Paterson, as a result of a defensive mix-up with Jack Hobbs.[citation needed] On 1 July 2015, Gulácsi transferred to RB Leipzig, the sister club of Red Bull Salzburg, for a fee of 3 million pounds.[25] According to leading German sports magazine Kicker, Gulácsi performed best in the Bundesliga's 2018–19 season matchday ratings with an average score of 2.61 and 16 clean sheets.[30] On 5 October 2022, he tore the anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee, in a 3–1 win against Celtic in the Champions League,[31][32] which forced him to miss the rest of the season.[43] After Király's retirement from the national team in August 2016,[44] Gulácsi became Hungary's starting goalkeeper, playing in every match during the 2018 FIFA World Cup qualification campaign.[47][better source needed] On 23 September 2022, Gulácsi made his 50th appearance for Hungary, keeping a clean sheet against Germany in a 1–0 UEFA Nations League fixture at Leipzig's Red Bull Arena.[48] His cruciate ligament injury in October saw Dénes Dibusz replacing him in the goalkeeper section for the UEFA Euro 2024 qualifying campaign, with the Hungarians going unbeaten throughout 2023.
