Krisztián Kovács was born on 29th May 2000 in Komárno, Upper Hungary. The right-back started playing football in Győr at the age of nine and made his debut for the Győr senior team at the age of 16 in a NB III match between Videoton FC II and ETO FC Győr. However, he did not play in that match, but a few months later he made his senior debut as a substitute in a league match against Csepel. In the following years, he became one of the key players of the Győr team in NB II, and in 2022 he also played against us in the MOL Hungarian Cup, when we suffered a 2-1 defeat in Győr.

In 2023, he signed for Paksi FC in the top flight and made 29 appearances in the NB I in the 2023/2024 season, even scoring his first league goal against FTC in the summer of 2023. Kovács started last season at Paks, but spent this spring on loan at Nyíregyháza. He played for all youth national teams from U16 to U21 between 2015 and 2019.
