László Köteles (Hungarian pronunciation: [ˈlaːsloː ˈkøtɛlɛʃ]; born 1 September 1984) is a Hungarian goalkeeper. He currently plays for Waasland-Beveren on loan from Genk where he has been first choice goalkeeper since December 2010.
Köteles previously played for Vác and Diósgyőr in the Hungarian NB I, and with FK Železnik, FK Grafičar Beograd and FK Bežanija in Serbia.
In August 2009 Lázsló Köteles joined the Belgian KRC Genk on a one-year loan with an option to make the move permanent. The club has already had two other Hungarian players (Dániel Tőzsér and Balázs Tóth).
It was uncertain if KRC Genk would continue with Köteles as the Hungarian has had some flaws in a few games, but in the play-offs of the Belgian league he got back to his regular level. In a small amount of time, Köteles has gained a lot of popularity with Genk fans due to his enthusiastic style of goalkeeping and the interaction with the fans, making them think of the legendary and unmatched popular goalkeeper István Brockhauser (also Hungarian) when the latter was first goalkeeper at KRC Genk, back in the nineties.
On 23 August 2011 Köteles played an important role in qualifying for the group stages of the UEFA Champions League 2011–12 season. Genk beat Maccabi Haifa 4-1 on penalties. Köteles saved the penalties of Vladimir Dvalishvili and Eyal Golasa.
