Every story has an end, every career concludes at some point. Marko Futacs, the towering striker from Budapest, bid farewell to football, a career we briefly followed in the Prva liga Telemach. The 196-centimeter-tall footballer signed for Olimpija in 2021 and made his debut in Ljubljana in the best possible way.
In October 2021, Marko Futacs scored against Tabor after a pass from Mustafa Nukić, securing a 1-0 victory for Olimpija over Sežana. It was his first and only goal in the green and white jersey, despite starting excellently. He played a total of six matches for the Dragons. “It’s best to bid farewell knowing you’ve given it your all. I’m grateful to everyone who has been with me on this incredible journey. I’m also looking forward to the new chapter in my life. Thank you, football!” said Marko Futacs upon his departure.
Today, at 34 years old, Marko Futacs, also a three-time Hungarian international, bid farewell to Olimpija after just a few months. Before ending his career, he played for MTK and Honved. Throughout his career, he showcased his talent at Fenercvaros, Nancy, Werder Bremen, Ingolstadt, Portsmouth, Leicester City, Blackpool, Diusgyor, Turkish club Mersin Talim Yurdu, Hajduk Split, Fehervar, and ZTE.
