The Italian head coach of the Hungarian national team announced a 27-man squad in Telki. The team is preparing for two Nations League matches. They will play Georgia in Tbilisi on November 7, 2026, and host Northern Ireland on November 10, 2026. Hungary currently sits second in their Nations League group with seven points, trailing Northern Ireland with two rounds remaining.

József Urblík is one of the three newcomers in the squad. The MLSZ stated that FIFA gave permission for the Vasas midfielder to play for the Hungarian national team.

Milán Pető is another new addition to the team. The 21-year-old midfielder plays for Paksi FC. The head coach highlighted that Pető is a technical, fast, and goal-dangerous player. Pető stated he owes a lot to György Bognár at Paks for trusting him after his summer return from a loan at Diósgyőr. Tamás Pető is a former 14-time national team footballer who won a championship with Újpest in 1998.

Ákos Szendrei is a 23-year-old striker for Debrecen. He had cruciate ligament surgery on November 3, 2021.
