Balázs Rabóczki (born 9th January 1978) is a Hungarian football player. He plays in the goalkeeper position, and is currently contracted to Vitesse Arnhem.

Club career

Balázs Rabóczki was a first team regular in Hungarian club Dunaferr SE, playing UEFA Champions League qualification games as well as UEFA Cup games, before joining SV Salzburg on a 3 month loan deal. Shortly after he was signed by Swedish Allsvenskan side IFK Norrköping.

F.C. Copenhagen

In January 2003, Balázs Rabóczki transferred to Danish Superliga side F.C. Copenhagen for a transfer fee of 5 million DKK, signing a 3,5 year contract and rejoining former SV Salzburg manager, Hans Backe. Rabóczki stated that the transfer was a big step forward for him, giving him the best opportunity to be selected for the Hungarian national team. Rabóczki was signed as a replacement for then F.C. Copenhagen goalkeeper, Rune Pedersen, who had turned down contract offers and eventually was sold to Italian Serie A side F.C. Modena.

During his time in Denmark, Rabóczki never established himself as the first pick goalkeeper, due to injuries, lack of stability and competent competition in the form of Magnus Kihlstedt and Benny Gall. During the end of the 2004/2005 season he did manage to secure a first team place, but the signing of Danish national team reserve and Danish Goalkeeper of the year, Jesper Christiansen, in the summer of 2005, meant that Rabóczki’s days in the F.C. Copenhagen first team were numbered.

In November 2005, Rabóczki spoke out about his frustrations about the lack of first team football, stating that it was not an acceptable situation for him, as he was losing his place in the national squad. The solution came shortly after, when he transferred to Hungarian side, FC Sopron.

During his time in F.C. Copenhagen, Rabóczki played 63 games, helping to secure two Danish Superliga titles, one silver medal, a Danish cup title and the first Royal League trophy.

FC Sopron

In 2005 Rabóczki joined the team of FC Sopron where he was promised to be a member of a continuously developing team. He signed a three year contract. Vízer László Máriusz the owner of FC Sopron in 2005 turned out to be a liar who never really invested into the club but regularly changed the team's coach. Rabóczki had enough of this, quit the club in 2006 and joined the team of Soproni VSE a club participating the third Hungarian league (also known as NB3). He said that while he is still looking for a new club to join, he want's to stay fit even if only by playing in a team that is in a lower league.

Vitesse Arnhem

On July 18 2007, Rabóczki agreed to a two year contract with Dutch Eredivisie outfit Vitesse Arnhem.

Budapest Honvéd FC

In June 2008, Rabóczki signed for Hungarian top side Budapest Honvéd FC. Rabóczki appeared with the team in the UEFA Intertoto Cup against Kazah Zhetysu, Czech Teplice and Austrian Sturm Graz.
