Dundee United Chairman Stephen Thompson said, “After meeting Csaba, seeing his enthusiasm for the job and his understanding of what is required by Dundee United, he emerged as the outstanding candidate.
“Csaba‘s CV is very impressive and his enthusiasm very infectious but after we met, the Board spoke to many people who had worked with him in football and I believe we have secured a fantastic coach, man-manager and a highly experienced tactician. I am delighted to welcome him as the new Dundee United Manager.”

I look forward to meeting the players. There is a good squad and good staff here and we want to win the Ladbrokes Championship.”
