László Szőke meaning "blonde" was a Hungarian football player, born on the 17th of October 1930 in Budapest.

In 1949 moved to Italy under contract to Fanfulla before becoming a well known name in Italian football by being transferred to first division Udinese who went on to place themselves in second position, behind the great AC Milan, in the Serie A division during the 1955-56 season.

Subsequently he transferred to Triestina and with them he won the Italian serie B championship in 1957/58.

At the end of the 1960 season he was ceded to Brescia, coached at the time by another Hungarian born personage in Sarosi, only to return to Trieste at the end of that season. With the Triestina team, now relegated to Third Division, he became one of the squad's focal points, winning the 1961-62 premiership, returning immediately to Serie B where he ended his playing days in 1963 after suffering a serious leg injury.

He still lives in the province of Udine.
