Kazimierz Deyna ({{IPA|pl|kaˈʑimjɛʐ ˈdɛjna|-|Pl-Kazimierz_Deyna.ogg}};{{Efn|In isolation, Kazimierz is pronounced {{IPA|pl|kaˈʑimjɛʂ|}}.|name=|group=}} 23 October 1947 – 1 September 1989) was a Polish professional footballer who played as an attacking midfielder in the playmaker role and was one of the most highly regarded players of his generation, due to his excellent vision.{{cite web|url=http://storiedicalcio.altervista.org/blog/polonia-1972-1974.html|title=Polonia 1972 – 1974: generazione di fenomeni|date=30 November 2015|publisher=Storie di Calcio|language=it|access-date=13 March 2017}} Throughout his career he played for such clubs as Legia Warsaw, Manchester City and San Diego Sockers.

At the international level, he earned 97 caps and scored 41 goals helping Poland claim 3rd place at the 1974 FIFA World Cup. At the 1972 Summer Olympics, he won gold with Poland and was the top goalscorer of the tournament. From 1973 to 1978, he served as captain of the national representation. In 1976, he won silver medal at the 1976 Summer Olympics.

In 1973 and 1974, he won the Polish Footballer of the Year Award.{{Cite web |url=https://www.worldfootball.net/footballer_of_the_year/polen/# |title=Player of the year – Poland |website=worldfootball.net |access-date=22 December 2024}} In 1974, he claimed third place in the Ballon d'Or. He was named "the greatest Polish footballer of the 20th century" by the Piłka Nożna football weekly.{{Cite web |url=https://www.rmf.fm/magazyn/news,10834,kazimierz-deyna-byl-najlepszym-polskim-pilkarzem-xx-wieku-28-lat-temu-zginal-w-wypadku.html |language=pl |title=Kazimierz Deyna był najlepszym polskim piłkarzem XX wieku. 28 lat temu zginął w wypadku |website=rmf.fm |date=1 September 2017 |access-date=21 December 2024}}

Early life

Deyna was born in Starogard to Franciszek (1911–1976), a dairy worker, and Jadwiga (1917–1981),{{cite web | url = http://legia.com/index.php?typ=podstrona&id=91| title = Kazimierz Deyna| date = 20 June 2012 |language=pl |access-date=26 June 2012}} a housewife. He had six sisters and two brothers, Henryk and Franciszek, who also were footballers. Henryk played for Włókniarz Starogard Gdański, while Franciszek was a Starogardzki KS player.{{Cite web|url=http://www.kazimierzdeyna.pl/ |title=Kazimierz Deyna – Legenda, która trwa |publisher=kazimierdzeyna.pl |language=pl |access-date=1 September 2010}}

Club career

=Legia Warsaw=

Deyna began playing youth football in 1958 at his local club Włókniarz Starogard Gdański. In 1966 he made one appearance for ŁKS Łódź (on 8 October in a 0–0 draw against Górnik Zabrze).{{Cite web|url=http://deyna.info/kariera.php |title=Kariera |publisher=deyna.info |language=pl |access-date=1 September 2010}} But he was quickly snapped up by Legia Warsaw. In communist Poland each team had its own "sponsor". The Warsaw club was much more powerful as it was the military club. Moreover, it was the favourite club of the authorities. Deyna was called up into the army and in this way he had to play for Legia Warsaw. He made a name for himself during his first season, becoming one of Legia's most important players.

In 1969 and 1970 his team won the Polish Championship.{{Cite news|url=http://polishsoccer.net/legia_warszawa.htm |title=Legia Warszawa |work=polishsoccer.net |access-date=25 February 2009 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090124044755/http://polishsoccer.net/legia_warszawa.htm |archive-date=24 January 2009 }} After his performances at the 1974 World Cup, European top teams like AS Saint-Étienne, AS Monaco, Real Madrid and Bayern Munich tried to acquire his services but he was unable to join, since the communist regime in Poland prevented him from moving to Western Europe. Real Madrid was so determined to acquire Deyna that they sent a shirt to Warsaw with his name and number "14".

=Manchester City=

Soon afterwards Deyna was transferred to English club Manchester City, making his debut in November 1978,{{Cite news|url=http://www.sporting-heroes.net/football-heroes/displayhero_club.asp?HeroID=17201|title=Kazimierz Deyna|work=sporting-heroes.net|access-date=25 February 2009}} and being one of the first wave of overseas players to play in the English league. His time in England was marred by a series of injuries, and he left in January 1981, shortly after Manchester City made a managerial change, having made only 43 appearances in all competitions. However, he was regarded as an exceptionally gifted playmaker and became a cult figure with City fans.{{Cite news|author =Ric Turner|url=http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/sport/football/premier_league/manchester_city/article5795355.ece|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110805132850/http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/sport/football/premier_league/manchester_city/article5795355.ece|url-status=dead|archive-date=5 August 2011|title=The 50 greatest Manchester City players|date=25 February 2009|work=The Times|access-date=25 February 2009}} Deyna scored thirteen goals in his time with the club. Furthermore, his seven goals in the last eight games of the 1978–79 season were crucial for Manchester City in their relegation battle.

=San Diego Sockers=

Deyna appeared in the 1981 film Escape to Victory as Paul Wolcheck.{{Cite news|url=https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0223391|title=Kazimierz Deyna|work=Internet Movie Database|access-date=25 February 2009}} In the same year, he emigrated to the United States, where he signed with the San Diego Sockers of the North American Soccer League in January 1981. During the next seven years, he played four NASL outdoor seasons, one NASL indoor season and five Major Indoor Soccer League seasons with the Sockers, winning five championships.

On 24 April 1968, Deyna made his debut for the Poland national team in a match against Turkey in Chorzów.

In 1976 Summer Olympics his team yet again reached the finals and won the silver medal. Additionally, he was ranked third in the European Footballer of the Year for 1974, behind Johan Cruyff and Franz Beckenbauer.

Deyna played for Poland on 97 (84 after the deduction of Olympic Football Tournament competition games{{Cite news|url=https://www.fifa.com/newscentre/news/newsid=70523.html|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080207032115/http://www.fifa.com/newscentre/news/newsid=70523.html|url-status=dead|archive-date=7 February 2008|title=France '98 and USA '99 influence the Century Clubs|work=FIFA.com|access-date=25 February 2009}}) occasions, scoring 41 goals, and often captained the side.
