László Bénes (born 9 September 1997) is a Slovak-Hungarian professional footballer who plays as a midfielder for 2. Bundesliga club Hamburger SV and the Slovakia national team.
Bénes was born in Dunajská Streda (a predominantly ethnic Hungarian town) to an ethnic Hungarian family. [1]
On 6 February 2015, Bénes signed a three-year deal with Fortuna Liga side MŠK Žilina from Győr. [2]
On 1 July 2016, he joined Bundesliga club Borussia Mönchengladbach. [3]
On 28 January 2019, Bénes moved to 2. Bundesliga side Holstein Kiel for the second half of the season. [4] He debuted in an away 2. Bundesliga match against Heidenheim, coming on as a substitute for Jonas Meffert in the 68th minute of the match. [5]
On 1 February 2021, Bénes moved to Bundesliga club FC Augsburg, on a loan deal until the end of the season. [6]
On 21 June 2022, Bénes signed a four-year contract with Hamburger SV. [7]
Bénes made his international debut as a substitute to Ondrej Duda in the 89th minute of the 2–1 victory against Lithuania. [8] Due to number of prolonged injuries and low playing time in Mönchengladbach, Bénes made no further appearances in the national team under Kozák, who resigned in October 2018. [9]
On 28 May 2019, coach Pavel Hapal called him up for a double fixture in June - a home friendly match against Jordan. [10] Subsequently, the core of the U21 squad became known as Hapal's children, including Bénes. [11]
