Tamás Priskin (born 27 September 1986 in Komárno) is a Hungarian international footballer currently playing for Watford as a striker.
On 9 August 2006 he completed a move to Premiership outfit Watford F.C. from Hungarian side Győri ETO FC on a four year deal after impressing during a trial period in which he scored four goals and set up three more. The undisclosed fee, initially said to be around £150k, was said by some sources to be as high as £1m. [1] He had been linked with a move to FC Köln prior to this as a replacement for Lukas Podolski.
Priskin made his debut for Watford on August 19, 2006 against Everton away. During this game he set up the club's first goal of the season as he fed a pass to Damien Francis who scored. His first goal for the club came on October 24 later that year in a League Cup tie against Hull.
