Hungarian football player in top 10 goalkeepers in the world
Posted by Mia Balogh · Apr 24, 2020

This is the first time in history, that there is a Hungarian name on FourFourTwo magazine’s list – let’s see who is this and where can we find him in the compilation.  

If you are a football fan and watch international matches regularly, you must have heard Péter Gulácsi’s name. He was the goalkeeper of Liverpool and Hull City, then he continued his career in Red Bull Salzburg and then in his current team, RB Leipzig.

In 2019, he was named Bundesliga’s top performer, and this year, he is on FourFourTwo magazine’s list called ‘best goalkeepers in the world’: although they missed to spell Gulácsi’s name correctly (they wrote ‘Gulasci’), he was ranked 6th by the editors of the magazine.

‘The signing of Peter Gulasci, from sister club RB Salzburg in 2015, might have been the smartest piece of business Leipzig ever did. Since joining the side for £2m, the Hungarian has been nothing short of sensational over the five seasons since.

Tall, quick off his line, great in the area and a supreme shot-stopper, Gulasci is arguably the best goalkeeper in Germany. His save percentage of 73.6% is excellent but, in truth, Leipzig’s joint league-low goals against column has as much to do with his organisational and communication skills as his stopping ability’ – they write.

10 best goalkeepers in the world according to fourfourtwo.com :

10. David de Gea (Manchester United)
