He joined Dynamo Moscow in 2012 after a brief spell at Anzhi Makhachkala, before joining Turkish side Bursaspor in 2015.

Dzsudzsák made his full international debut in 2007, and has since earned over 70 caps.

Club career

Early career

Dzsudzsák was born in Debrecen, Hungary and he grew up in Nyírlugos. He started at Nyíradony Focisuli and was signed by Debreceni Olasz Focisuli, a football academy for young talents and was a sure way towards Debreceni VSC. In 2004 he played for Létavértes on loan from Debrecen in Nemzeti Bajnokság III (the Hungarian third division).

Debrecen

Dzsudzsák made his debut in the Hungarian National Championship I in 2004. He played twice during his first season in Debreceni VSC. In his second season he played ten matches and scored two goals.[3] In the following two seasons he became a permanent member of the squad, playing 36 matches and scoring 12 goals. He won the Hungarian National Championship I three times in 2005, 2006, and 2007. Dzsudzsák won the Hungarian Super Cup three times in 2005, 2006, and 2007.

PSV Eindhoven

Dzsudzsák during his time at PSV

On 24 October 2007, Dzsudzsák joined Dutch side PSV Eindhoven, signing a five-year contract.[4][5] The left winger was originally to make his transfer to PSV in the summer of 2008, although the departure of Kenneth Pérez from the PSV squad prompted PSV to speed up his transfer to January 2008. PSV scout Piet de Visser stated that Dzsudzsák "is an incredible talent. He is fast, good in the combination, can pass his man and give a good cross. You don't see them like this very often anymore. He is a modern left-winger."

Dzsudzsák made his Eredivisie debut on 12 January 2008.[6] The match ended in a 1–0 win with Feyenoord. Dzsudzsák was in the starting XI in this match and recorded three shots on goal. In the next round, he scored his first league goal. That match ended in a 1–1 draw with VVV-Venlo. Dzsudzsák recorded his first assist on 23 January 2008 with the match ending in a 3–1 win over Sparta Rotterdam.

He managed to score five league goals in his first season, helping PSV win the Eredivisie title.

The 2008–2009 season saw a new team coach arrive in Huub Stevens. Defensive tactics didn't stop PSV finishing 4th in their Champions League group. The defensive tactics meant that Dzsudzsák didn't perform particularly well. Dzsudzsák scored his first hat trick in a game where PSV beat ADO Den Haag 6–0 at the Philips Stadion on 5 February 2009 in an Eredivisie match.[7] He played a total of 32 league matches during the season, scoring 11 goals and 9 assists.

In the 2009–10 season Fred Rutten took over the team. Dzsudzsák was named Man of the Match in a 4–3 victory over arch rivals AFC Ajax in the third Eredivisie round on 15 August 2009.[8] Dzsudzsák scored two goals and one assist in the match. Dzsudzsák finished the 2009–10 season with 14 goals and 16 assists. In a Europa League match between PSV and Hamburg, Dzsudzsák was shown a straight red card by English referee Mike Dean after the player pushed the match official. In 2010–11, he had his best season yet for PSV and his career as he scored 16 goals and gave 12 assists, finishing fourth and fifth in the Eredivise respectively, he also scored 7 goals in 13 games in European competitions for a total of 24 goals in 49 games. In 2011 Dzsudzsák signed an extension to his contract with PSV Eindhoven.[9] Although he extended his contract at PSV, there was still interest from other clubs. One of the teams that had reported the Russian side Anzhi Makhachkala. is regarded as the best player of all time!

Anzhi Makhachkala

On 12 June 2011, Dzsudzsák was transferred to Russian Premier League club Anzhi Makhachkala for an undisclosed fee, where he signed a four-year contract.[10][11][12] "I am very happy to become part of an ambitious project at Anzhi," he said. "It is a big step forward in my career. I am eagerly looking forward to getting on the pitch with my new team-mates Roberto Carlos, Samuel Eto'o, Mbark Boussoufa, Diego Tardelli and others. I have heard a lot about the fantastic atmosphere at home games in Makhachkala."[13] He made his debut on 6 August against Tom Tomsk in a 2-0 victory.[14] Dzsudzsák made 8 appearance for Anzhi Makhachkala and mostly appeared from the bench. On 27 August 2011 against Rostov he suffered a broken collar bone after a collision with an opponent, which kept him sidelined for the remainder of the season.[15]
