We are delighted to announce the signing of 27-year-old versatile defender Oleksandr Safronov on a 1+2-year contract.

Our new signing has represented Ukraine at various youth international levels and won the U20 World Cup with his country in 2019. During his career he has played for internationally established Dnipro, as well as clubs in Estonia, Lendava and the Romanian top flight. Hungary’s NB I will be familiar territory too: he made 55 top-flight appearances for Zalaegerszeg, winning the Hungarian Cup with the club in 2022/23. 

“I did not have to think long before accepting Honvéd’s offer. This is a club with tremendous tradition, and I want to help the team. I enjoyed playing in the Hungarian league, so I am glad to be returning to NB I, especially with a club that has such a large fan base. I can play in several defensive positions, both at centre-back and right-back. I cannot wait to get out on the pitch” our new signing told our official website. 

Welcome to Kispest, Oleksandr!
