Patrick Veszpremi (born 1 September 1989) is an Australian rules footballer who plays with the Sydney Swans in the Australian Football League.
Originally from Bundoora, Victoria,[1] Veszpremi was drafted to the Swans from the Northern Knights in the TAC Cup with the 11th selection in the 2007 AFL Draft. He was named in the Under 18 All Australian side as a defender, but also played as a forward, where he once kicked eight goals for the Knights in a final.[2]
He made his debut for the Swans in 2008 Round 18 against the Western Bulldogs in a 16 point defeat. In his fourth game against Brisbane he kicked four goals.[1]
Veszpremi was one of five teenage footballers whose final year of junior football was chronicled in the book The Draft: inside the AFL's Search for talent by Emma Quayle, published by Allen and Unwin in September 2008.[3]
