János Hrutka (born 26 October 1974) is a Hungarian former professional footballer who played as a defender. He represented the Hungary national team internationally between 1998 and 2002.
He was a member of the 1. FC Kaiserslautern team which reached the quarter final of the UEFA Champions League in the 1998–99 season and won the Bundesliga in 1998.[1]
Persecution[edit]
Hrutka worked as a commentator and expert for the pro-government television sports channel Spíler TV from 2017 to 2021. He was fired from the TV channel in March 2021, because he agreed with Hungary national team and RB Leipzig footballer, Péter Gulácsi's opinion on pro-LGBT statements of gay marriage. Subsequently, the government media (Nemzeti Sport and FourFourTwo) began to revive his player contracts from the past twenty years, with the intention of expiration.[2][3]
