Krisztián Keresztes, hailing from Hungary, was born on the 4th of January 2000, putting him at the ripe age of 26. His professional career has seen him as a stalwart defender, notably for Dundee United, and predominantly operates in the central defender role. Standing at an imposing 6 foot 4 inches tall (1.95m), he's not easily overshadowed on the pitch, a fact backed by his hefty weight of 13 stone and 12 lbs (or 88kg for our metric friends). The number 24 jersey can be seen hanging on his broad shoulders.
As per the records made available by Transfermarkt, the defender's market value orbits around the £300K mark.
Keresztes initially undertook a journey from STK Samorín located in Slovakia's 2nd Liga to Nyiregyhaza Spartacus in Hungary's upper echelons, the Nemzeti Bajnokság I, back in August 2024. During his inaugural season with Nyiregyhaza Spartacus, the then 24-year old made his presence felt by making 22 appearances and even chipping in with a goal - a commendable feat for a defender.
The following year, in July 2025, Keresztes embarked on another venture, transferring from Nyiregyhaza Spartacus to Dundee United, a well-established name in the Scottish Premiership. His tenure at Dundee United, albeit being a loan spell, has been quite fruitful, with him notching up 28 first team appearances and slotting the ball past the goal line on a couple of occasions during the ongoing 2025-2026 season.
Aside from his premier league duties, Keresztes has also marked his presence in the domestic cup competitions. He was involved in the League Cup 2025-2026 for Dundee United, making a solitary start, while also featuring twice in the starting line-up for the Scottish Cup the same season. Further, the defender also showcased his prowess in the Conference League Qualifiers 2025-2026, representing Dundee United in four games.
