Plymouth Argyle sign Hungarian defender Szucs

Kornel Szucs is the first Hungarian player to sign for Argyle since Gyorgy Sandor joined the club in January 2008

Plymouth Argyle have signed Hungarian defender Kornel Szucs for an undisclosed fee.

The 22-year-old has arrived from Kecskemeti, who play in Hungary's top flight.

He can operate as a centre-back, right-back or right wing-back and is Argyle's sixth signing of the summer.

He joins the club after Dan Scarr was sold to Wrexham for an undisclosed fee on Friday.

“I am really pleased we have been able to bring Kornel on board,” Pilgrims boss Wayne Rooney told the Championship club's website.

“He is a very talented young player, able to play in several defensive positions.

"As well as his versatility, he is very athletic, is comfortable on the ball, and is well suited to the way we want to play.

“I am looking forward to seeing him in action for us.”

Plymouth have not revealed the length of Szuc's contract.

The club have also signed Nathanael Ogbeta, Muhamed Tijani, Darko Gyabi, Ibrahim Cissoko and Victor Palsson so far this summer.
