How did Puskás Sr. initially register his son to play?

  • Using his real name

  • As Kovács Miklós

  • As Puskás Jr.

  • Under a cousin's ID

Answer

To ensure his son's footballing career amidst strict regulations, Puskás Sr. strategically registered him under the name "Kovács Miklós," a name already registered as a player. This clever move circumvented the restrictions imposed by the Hungarian FA and allowed the young Ferenc Puskás to showcase his talent without complications.
