Comparisonator is proud to share this fantastic event and associated panel “Changing World of Football” during Football Forum Hungary 2026 which is set to unite global football industry leaders in Budapest.
Our CEO Tarkan Batgün’s book, The Book of Scouting – Volume One, is now available on Amazon and the book launch will be at the Football Forum Hungary on Tuesday 21 April at 13.00 at Tipmix Hall in Puskas Arena..
The book explores how football decisions are truly made today — combining insights from professionals across the game with a clear framework built around live scouting, video, data, and context. It moves beyond the simple question of “is the player good?” to understand why a player fits — or doesn’t — within a specific environment. It also explains the role of AI in a practical way, showing how it supports decision-making without replacing human judgment.
