Balázs Tóth

Balázs Tóth of Blackburn Rovers was born in Kazincbarcika, Hungary on 4 September 1997 (age 28).

Balázs Tóth, born on 4 September 1997 (age 28), is a Hungarian goalkeeper now with Blackburn Rovers. His senior career began to take shape at Puskas Akademia, where the 2019-20 season gave him a useful early run of league football with nine appearances.

Those early first-team minutes matter in a position where development is often less tidy than anyone pretends. Tóth has since built a career as an established professional rather than a headline act, with his current market value sitting at around £850,000 according to Transfermarkt.

At Blackburn Rovers in 2026-27, he has made four appearances across the Championship, FA Cup and League Cup. He has also been involved with Hungary, making three appearances in European World Cup qualifying this season.

He was linked with a move to Celtic in August 2026. For now, his career is best read as that of a Hungarian goalkeeper who earned his footing through early senior football, moved on to England, and has remained in the international picture.
