Ferenc Szusza (1 December 1923 – 1 August 2006) was a Hungarian footballer who played as a forward. He was a top division player for Újpest FC from 1941 to 1960. He made 24 appearances for the Hungary national team and was a four-time champion with Újpest FC.[1]
As of 2021, Szusza was the all-time second-top scorer in Hungary's top division,[2] and the 11th highest among all top division players in the world.[3]
Szusza played for Hungary, but was a surprise omission from the side that won gold at the 1952 Summer Olympics. He was disciplined by then manager Gusztáv Sebes after an incident following a match against the Soviet Union in Moscow in May 1952. Szusza would only make one further appearance for Hungary, in 1956.[4]
After his football career, Szusza became a manager. He coached Győri ETO, Újpesti Dózsa, Górnik Zabrze, Real Betis and Atlético Madrid.[1]
