Tamás Priskin (Hungarian pronunciation: [ˈpɾiʃkin ˈtɒmaːʃ]; born 27 September 1986) is a Hungarian footballer who plays for ŠK Slovan Bratislava and the Hungarian national football team as a striker.
He spent most of his career in England, with Watford and Ipswich Town. His first season on arrival in 2006 was in the Premier League, and he spent the remainder in The Championship. After his release from Ipswich in January 2012, Priskin has played in brief stints in Russia, Austria, Israel and Hungary.
A full international since 2005, Priskin has 58 caps and 17 international goals for Hungary.
Priskin was born in Komárno in Czechoslovakia to ethnic Hungarian parents. He joined the youth club of Győri ETO FC when he was 15 years old and received Hungarian citizenship in 2005 in addition to his Slovak passport. He is the older brother of Győri ETO FC striker Imre Vankó.
He made his debut for Győri ETO FC in the first Hungarian League on 23 April 2003 at the age of 16 years and 7 months. On 9 August 2006 he completed a move to Premier League club Watford on a four-year deal after impressing during a trial period, for an undisclosed fee.
Priskin made his debut for Watford ten days after signing as they opened the season away at Everton. After coming on in the 79th minute for Darius Henderson, he set up Damien Francis, who scored the consolation in a 2–1 defeat at Goodison Park. His first goal for the club came on 24 October in a League Cup third round tie against Hull City at Vicarage Road, exploiting a Ryan France error to net the second in a 2–1 win for Watford's first normal-time victory of the season.
