Colchester United have completed the season-long loan signing of Hungary international Bela Balogh.
The U's have the option of signing the 23-year-old MTK Hungaria central defender on a permanent basis next summer if the loan arrangement proves to be a success.
Chief executive Marie Partner told the club's official website: "It's not often that Colchester United manage to sign a current international and with that comes the added complications of red tape and regulations involved in a foreign player transfer.
"Therefore the process involved with the actual contract has taken longer than hoped.
"We've worked through the various requirements to complete this move, and we're now delighted to confirm Bela as a U's player for the foreseeable future."
