Lajos László Détári[2] (born 24 April 1963) is a Hungarianfootballmanager and formerplayer who played as amidfielder.[3] At the height of his career (1984–1994), he was a well-respected player throughout Europe, winning "Player of the Year" titles in Hungary, Greece and Switzerland.
Détári was born inBudapest. In 1984 he made his debut for theHungarian national team againstSwitzerland. He scored 13 goals in 61 caps for his country until 1994.[4] He was a participant at the1986 FIFA World Cup in Mexico, where Hungary failed to progress from the group stage. Détári scored one goal in the 2–0 victory againstCanada. To this day, this remains the last scored goal by Hungary in the World Cup finals.
In 1987 Détári was transferred from Honvéd Budapest toEintracht Frankfurt in theBundesliga for DM 3.6 millions (equivalent to €1.73 million in 2021). In the1987–88 season he scored 11 goals in 33 games. On 28 May 1988, Détári scored the goal in the 1–0 victory againstVfL Bochum at theGerman Cup final. It was a direct free kick just outside the box, leading Eintracht to their fourth German Cup win. Détári had played in all six cup games that season.
At the beginning of the following season Détári was on the move for a world record fee of £6 million.[5] He arrived in Greece to a tumultuous reception by the Piraeus club's supporters. Unfortunately, he did not justify the expectations of Olympiacos or the money spent in his acquisition, leaving after only two years in the midst of the scandal involving the owner of Olympiacos,George Koskotas. Still, in those two years he managed 35 goals in 60league games, many of them from set plays which was his specialty.
After leaving Greece, Détári played for many clubs. Further clubs that Détári played for wereBologna F.C. 1909,Ancona Calcio,Neuchâtel Xamax and VSESt. Pölten.
After his playing days were over, Détári tried his hand at coaching in Hungary with Honved, inVietnam for three months and in Greece withPanserraikos. He also coached Hungarian team Nyíregyháza and Haladás Szombathely. From March to October 2006, he was also co-trainer of the Hungarian national team active underPéter Bozsik. He started the 2007–08 season asMFC Sopron boss, but was sacked in October following a number of poor results in the league. In January 2008, he was hired as a coach by F.C. Poros, the local team of the Greek island ofPoros.
On 2 January 2002, Détári was appointed as the manager ofBudapest Honvéd.[6] He replaced Róbert Glázer who left forÚjpest. Détári's team surprisingly beat the Hungarian championsZalaegerszeg by 1–0 in theBozsik Stadion.[7] On 20 August 2004, he returned to Honvéd as an assistant coach withGyörgy Bognár.[8] The pair replaced György Gálhidi who was sacked by Honvéd after an unsuccessful start in the Hungarian League.
Détári achieved promotion withSzombathelyi Haladás in 2003. On 27 August 2003, Détári resigned from his position even after his team made a good start.[9]
On 30 August 2011, Détári was appointed as the head coach of the Hungarian clubFerencváros due to the resignation ofLászló Prukner after several defeats in the Hungarian League and the early farewell from the Europa League. Ferencváros won the first match with Détári by 2–0 againstZalaegerszeg which was coached by Ferencváros's former coach László Prukner.
On 15 February 2024, he watched theUEFA Europa Conference League match betweenOlympiacos F.C. andFerencvárosi TC at theKaraiskakis Stadium in Athens.[10] He has his own seat at the stadium with his name on it.
