Henrik Nadler

Profile in the Jews In Sports Online virtual museum.

Nadler, a left halfback, played for the club team MTK Budapest and the Hungarian National team in the 1920s. Although Nadler was a terrific player during his career, he suffered in comparison to FTC's Zoltan Blum, who was considered Hungary's top left halfback. Nevertheless, the slender Nadler appeared in six international games for Hungary with his "repertoire of imaginative moves." (according to Andrew Handler in From the Ghetto to the Games). Nicknamed "Pubi," Nadler died in World War II as a labor serviceman.
