"When making my decision, I liked the project the club presented to me. I am aware that Honvéd has one of the greatest histories and fan bases in Hungary. I hope the coach gives me an opportunity as soon as possible and that I can prove to everyone that I can be of great help to the team in the future" - Kántor told the club's official website.
