Krisztián Vadócz

Early years

Born in Budapest, Vadócz made his professional debut aged 17 with hometown club Budapest Honvéd FC, and caught the eye of AJ Auxerre in summer 2005. However, he managed no Ligue 1 appearances in a two-year spell, finishing his last on loan to Motherwell in Scotland. In June 2007, Vadócz was finally released by the French, joining NEC Nijmegen. During the season, he was an essential midfield element for a team that finished a comfortable eighth in the Eredivisie.

In the 2009–10 campaign, Vadócz appeared in exactly the same number of matches for the Navarrese, again mainly from the bench. On 11 April 2010, he netted from 35 yards to help his team to a 2–0 home win over Real Zaragoza.
