Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Szépe.
Judged on this season alone, Szépe graded 7 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 26th of 30 of the 30 centre-backs in the NB I, on 2 clean sheets and 2.477 defensive actions per 90.
We hold a single season for Szépe, so there's no year-on-year comparison to draw yet — the read above is this campaign only.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 16, 16th of 30 of the 30 centre-backs in the NB I. At 30 Szépe is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 1 reflects that trajectory.
Output in context · MTK Budapest finished 10th of 12 · a relegation-threatened side
2.48 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 18 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (10th of 12) is harder than the bare numbers suggest: a back line under more pressure has to defend more often and protects fewer leads, so the volume — and any clean sheets — carry real weight.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 29.4% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 15.8, Szépe carries the 16th-highest potential of the centre-backs in the NB I of 30 — though on just 18 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.48 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1× now → 0.7× projected in three years).
