Hungarian Link! - Ipswich Town News

As we said earlier today there are sure to be a lot of names bandied about as the week goes along, but none is likely to be more tricky to pronounce than János Hrutka, a Hungarian defender who plays for Eintracht Frankfurt.

Hrutka has 22 international caps and has played in Germany for Kaiserslautern as well as Eintracht Frankfurt. The 26-year-old previously played in his home country for Ferencvaros, Lombik Kobanya and MTK Budapest.

We have to say we're more than a touch sceptical about this, particularly as the report we read said he played for Ferencevaros, which as far as we can see from scything through languages we can't speak, he doesn't. Anyone able to tell us any better?
