Ladislau Bonyhádi

Ladislau Ludovic Bonyhádi (Hungarian: Bonyhádi László; born 25 March 1923 - deceased 13 June 1997 in Miami, Florida, United States) was a Romanian football player of Hungarian ethnicity. He was one of the legends of UTA Arad, being the top-goalscorer of Liga I twice, in 1947 and 1948. In the 1947–48 season, he scored 49 goals, which is still a record for Romanian first league, despite that Dudu Georgescu scored 47 goals in the 1976 -1977 season whom was regarded as European record, until Messi scored 50 goals in the 2011-2012 season. He earned also three caps for the Romania national side. After his last season at ITA Arad, he went to Hungary, and played for a few teams in a lower league. In 1958, he became coach at the class teams from the neighboring country.
