Peter Ambrose is being linked with a return to Hungarian football, with Aberdeen forward reportedly attracting interest from NB I side Diósgyőr.
The 23-year-old centre-forward, currently on the books at Aberdeen FC, has emerged as a rumoured target for the Hungarian club according to transfer data, though the probability of a deal is listed only as “?” at this stage. No fee has been reported, but with Ambrose’s market value currently set at €400k, any move would likely be at the lower end of the European transfer scale or potentially hinge on Aberdeen’s willingness to sanction a cut-price exit or future free-transfer scenario.
Ambrose joined Aberdeen from Újpest FC ahead of the 2024-25 campaign, maintaining the €400k valuation he reached in Hungary, where his stock had risen steadily from €25k in early 2022. The Nigerian striker, who wears the No 32 shirt for the Dons, has not yet seen his market value increase further during his time in Scotland, prompting speculation that both player and club could be open to a change of scenery if the right opportunity arises.
The rumoured interest from Diósgyőr would mark a return to a league Ambrose knows well, having played in Hungary’s top flight with Újpest after earlier spells in Türkiye at Balikesirspor and Balikesirspor U19, following his move from the John Utaka Academy in Nigeria. Standing at 1.84m and operating primarily as a centre-forward with a right-footed preference, he has been viewed as a physically capable attacking option with room to develop.
While recent detailed match data is not provided in the current report, Ambrose’s flat valuation curve at Aberdeen suggests he has yet to produce a standout run of performances that would force a reappraisal of his worth.
If a move to Diósgyőr were to materialise, it could offer Ambrose a fresh platform in a familiar environment to reignite his trajectory and redefine his reputation in European football.
