Krisztián Vadócz (Hungarian pronunciation: [ˈkɾistiaːn ˈvɒdoːt͡s]; born 30 May 1985) is an Hungarian professional footballer who plays for Odense Boldklub in Denmark, as a central midfielder.

Club career

Born in Budapest, Vadócz made his professional debuts aged 17, with hometown's Budapest Honvéd FC, and caught the eye of Ligue 1 outfit AJ Auxerre in the 2005 summer. However, he managed no first-team appearances in a three-year spell, finishing his last on loan to Motherwell in Scotland.[1]

In June 2007 Vadócz was finally released by the French, joining NEC Nijmegen. During his only season in the Eredivisie, he was an essential midfield element for a side that finished a comfortable eighth.

Subsequently, Vadócz penned a four-year contract with La Liga outfit CA Osasuna.[2] Never an undisputed starter in his first season he did score some important goals for the Navarrese, against UD Almería (3–1, after only playing one minute)[3] and at Atlético de Madrid (4–2).[4]

In the 2009–10 season Vadócz appeared in exactly the same number of matches for Osasuna, again mainly from the bench. On 11 April 2010, he scored from 35 yards to help his side to a 2–0 home win against Real Zaragoza.[5]

Vadócz was released by Osasuna in the last day of the 2011 summer transfer window, immediately signing with former team NEC. On 6 September 2012 he changed clubs and countries again, joining Odense Boldklub in the Danish Superliga.[6]

International career

Vadócz made his debut for both Hungary's under-21 and the full side in 2004. He netted his first goal for the latter a year later, in a 3–2 friendly win over Antigua and Barbuda in Miami, Florida.
