János Hrutka (born 26 October 1974) is a Hungarian former professional footballer who played as a defender. He represented the Hungary national team internationally between 1998 and 2002.
He was a member of the 1. FC Kaiserslautern team which reached the quarter final of the UEFA Champions League in the 1998–99 season and won the Bundesliga in 1998.
From 2017 to 2021, he served as a pundit for TV2 Group's Spíler TV. In March 2021, Hrutka was fired from the network after he liked a Facebook post by Peter Gulacsi in support of LGBTQ rights in Hungary; media outlets tied the firing to the network's pro-government stances under current owner József Vida.
