Hungarian Player of Barcelona

Today I'm going to search about the most famous hungarian player of Barcelona. His name was Laszlo Kubala. His mother, Anna Stecz, was a factory worker with roots of Polish, Slovak, and Hungarian. His father, Pal Kubala Kurjas, was a bricklayer from Slovak minority. He started his career in a team called Granz TE. At the age of eighteen he signed for Ferencvaros. At those times Ferencvaros even represented hungary in champions league. After communism took over Hungary, he fled the country and moved first to Italy then to Barcelona in 1950. In 1963 he signed for the city rival, Espanol. He retired in 1967.
