Novota, Jan

Ján Novota (Hungarian: Novota János; born 29 November 1983) is a retired Slovak football goalkeeper and a football coach. A member of the Hungarian minority in Slovakia, Novota made his national team debut against Montenegro on 23 May 2014 (2–0 win), playing the second half of the friendly fixture. Later he was fielded in 3 additional friendly games against Iceland, Georgia and Austria, which was his last international cap on 15 November 2016. The only game he played for entire 90 minutes was against Iceland. Novota was forced to retire from professional football on 5 February 2018 after suffering from aortic aneurysm, which caused his aorta to reach some 1.3 times the normal. His last competitive game was for Debrecen on 9 December 2017 in Round 19 of Nemzeti Bajnokság I against Diósgyőri. In 2021, Slovak journalist of Hungarian ethnicity Titanilla Bőd published a biography of Novota titled by his surname. In December 2022, he led a mid-season training camp in Senec for Slovak national team prospects under Francesco Calzona as the goalkeeper's coach, in place of his former national team partner Matúš Kozáčik. In March 2023, ahead of the first two UEFA Euro 2024 qualifiers, it was announced that Novota will replace Kozáčik as the goalkeeping coach of the national team permanently.
