And Szoboszlai is set to make history when he leads Hungary out at the RheinEnergieStadion against the Swiss on Saturday.He is in line to become the youngest ever captain in Euros history since the inaugural tournament in 1960.
Should he start in Hungary's first fixture as expected, Szoboszlai will be 23 years, seven months and 21 days old - enough to record a historic feat.Speaking at a press conference on Tuesday, he said: “A few days ago, I found out that I’ll be the youngest team captain of all time at the European Championship; this is a great honour for me and at the same time, I would like to thank Marco Rossi for trusting me and for giving me the opportunity to lead the team to the European Championship.
“We are playing a kind of football that is less positional and more relational- and Dominik is a player, together with many others, is free to go where he feels he can go.” SPORTbible are on WhatsApp!
