I would have appreciated it, but I did not want to hold him to account. At the very beginning, I would have expected a personal explanation, which would have felt good, but it did not happen. I’m not a little boy who will take offense at this.

Speaking about his recent appearances for Hungary, Nagy also turned the criticism on himself. He said he deeply regretted that the last European Championship campaign had gone wrong.

I deeply regret that the last European Championship somehow went off track.

Although he continued to receive call-ups afterward, Nagy said he had felt his performances were just good enough for another player with greater desire to take his position. He added that there was nothing wrong with looking back and considering whether that was what happened. The discussion also touched on his dream of reaching 100 appearances for the Hungary national team.
