Lech Poznan
Age 26 (14.03.90)

Attacking midfielder who made his mark in the Premier League with spectacular goals from distance for West Brom and Fulham.

Laszlo Kleinheisler
3/1
Werder Bremen (Ger)
Age 22 (08.04.94)
The real success story of the qualifying campaign, his goalscoring debut in Hungary’s play-off win in Norway earned him a contract with Bremen.

Zoltan Stieber
11/2

Forwards

Daniel Bode
11/4
Ferencvaros
Age 29 (24.10.86)
Bullish forward who is a fans’ favourite at Ferencvaros and has a knack of scoring vital goals for the national team. Proved to be a game-changer in October’s qualifier against the Faroe Islands when he came on as a sub with Hungary losing 1-0 and scored twice in eight minutes.

Gergo Lovrencsics
11/1
Lech Poznan (Pol)
Age 27 (01.09.88)
A Polish title winner last year, this right-sided forward’s selfless running throughout the home leg of the play-offs was a vital factor in Hungary’s eventual qualification.

Krisztian Nemeth
24/3
Al Gharafa (Qat)
Age 27 (05.01.89)

Nemanja Nikolic
17/3
Legia Warsaw (Pol)
Age 28 (31.12.87)
Hungary’s most in-form forward is by no means a regular in the national team’s starting line-up. Impressive this season at Legia, he has provided Storck with a welcome selection problem up front.

Tamas Priskin
55/17
Slovan Bratislava (Slk)
Age 29 (27.09.86)
