However, he played in the subsequent match against Cardiff City In the following training, he felt something strange in his leg and the physio scanned and found out that his injury is more serious than it was previously thought. He had to miss three months.[22][23][24] On 18 April 2023, he returned and played against Birmingham City in the 2022–23 EFL Championship season.[25]

International career

edit

Although born in England, Styles was also eligible to play international football for Ukraine and Hungary through his grandparents.[35] On 14 March 2022, he was included in the Hungary squad for matches against Serbia and Northern Ireland.[36] On 24 March 2022, he made his debut for Hungary against Serbia at the Puskás Aréna. He came on as a substitute for Zsolt Nagy in the 70th minute.[37]

On 27 August 2024, Marco Rossi, the head coach of the national team, announced the squad for the matches of the 2024–25 UEFA Nations League against Germany and Bosnia and Hercegovina and Styles was not included.[43] One possible reason for his omission was that Styles did not play in his club.[44]

Personal life

edit

His first visit to Hungary was cancelled due to the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic. He said: "I was meant to go with my girlfriend just after lockdown started. We had a trip to Budapest booked and a few weeks before, we went into lockdown and had to cancel it."[45] In an interview with the BBC, Styles stated that in 2020, he had found out that his grandmother was Hungarian.[46] Poya Asbaghi, former manager of Barnsley, said in an interview that it is a big honour for Styles to represent Hungary.[47] In an interview with Nemzeti Sport, he said that the reason why he did not speak Hungarian is that his grandmother used to talk about Hungary, but did not teach him any of the language.[48][49]

In January 2024, he had his appendix removed for appendicitis in a private hospital.[50]
