Budapesti Honvéd Sportegyesület, which operates in 19 sports, celebrated its 75th birthday on 18 December. To mark the occasion, the club welcomed its new Immortal Members and Perpetual Champions at Honvéd's headquarters on Dózsa György út. At the ceremony, our club legend Mihály Kozma was awarded the title of Immortal Member of Honvéd. The award was presented by Dr István Simicskó, president of Honvéd, and Gábor Kunszt, perpetual honorary president.
During his career in Kispest, our legendary striker won the league twice, finished runner-up four times and took bronze twice. He was top scorer three times. He returned from the Munich Olympics with a silver medal. At the 1972 European Championship he was selected in the team of the tournament.
