Ladislao Kubala was a Hungarian, Czechoslovak and Spanish professional footballer.

Regarded as one of the best players in history, he is considered a hero of FC Barcelona. He played as a forward for, among other clubs, Ferencváros, Slovan Bratislava, and R.C.D. Espanyol. A Hungarian national by birth, he also held Czechoslovak and Spanish citizenship, and in fact played for the national teams of all three countries.

Kubala was noted for his quick and skillful dribbling, composed and powerful finishing, and accuracy from free kicks. During the 1950s, he was a leading member of the successful Barcelona team, scoring 280 goals in 345 appearances. During the club's 1999 centenary celebrations, a fan's poll declared Kubala the best player ever to play for the Spanish club. After retiring as a player, he had two spells as coach of Barcelona and also coached both Spain's senior national team and Olympic team.

A forward of wonderful skills, strong and an expert taker of free
kicks, he played for Spanish team FC Barcelona (1950-1961)

As a player, he became one of the legends in the history of FC
Barcelona. However, he was not as fortunate in his career as a coach
and his stay with Barcelona was considerably shorter.

Voted the greatest player in the 100-year history of Barcelona soccer
club, beating legend Johan Cruyff and Argentine super star Diego
Maradona. [November 1999]
