During the winter break of 2018–19 season he announced to the management of Zemplín, that he will not extend a contract with the club.[2]

MFK Karviná

On 4 January 2024, Regáli signed a contract with Czech First League club Karviná.[4]

International career

Regáli was never a part of youth national teams. In March 2022, Štefan Tarkovič called him up for Slovak national teams friendly fixtures against Norway and Finland, at the age of 28.[5] On 25 March, he made his international debut at Ullevaal Stadion in a 0–2 loss against Norway. Regáli came on the pitch during 35th minute to replace injured Tomáš Suslov on the right wing with a score still being goal-less. Second-half goals by Erling Haaland and Martin Ødegaard caused the 2–0 win for the home side.[6] He made further appearances in the calendar year, including appearances in the negatively perceived campaign 2022–23 UEFA Nations League C campaign, in which Slovakia had failed to win the anticipated promotion.

On 20 November 2022 Regáli played a notable role in Marek Hamšík's international farewell match. In the 89th minute of the match by Hamšík departed the international game for the final time during a substitution, when he was replaced and retired by Regáli. During the substitution, Hamšík was exited by a standing ovation of almost 20 thousand spectators of an essentially sold out stadium. During the stoppage time the score did not change and remained at a goal-less tie.[7] Regáli sealed his debut year off with a nomination for national team prospective players' training camp at NTC Senec days later, in December.[8]
