György Orth (30 April 1901 – 11 January 1962) was a Hungarian football player and manager. As well as being involved in football in his homeland, he also managed in Italy, Chile, Germany, Mexico, Peru, Argentina and Portugal. One of best footballers of his generation, György Orth was an attacking midfielder and forward renowned for his technique and pace. He also appeared in the football tournament at the 1924 Summer Olympics.[1]

Playing career

Orth started his playing career off with hometown side Vasas,[2] before first experiencing Italian football with a spell at Pisa. Before retirement from playing Orth returned to Budapest in the form of a move to MTK Budapest. He was an important player for the Hungary national team in the interwar era but a serious knee injury suffered in 1926 stymied his playing career.[3][4]
