Pohl scored 39 goals in 46 international matches for Poland national football team and to this day remains the most prolific Ekstraklasa. He played for Slavia Ruda Śląska, Orzeł Łódź between 1952 and 1953, CWKS Warsaw between 1953 and 1956 and Górnik Zabrze between 1957 and 1967. During the 1960 Summer Olympics in Rome, he scored five goals in a 6–1 win against Tunisia.[2]

Following the fall of the Berlin Wall and German reunification in 1990, he relocated to Germany, where his wife and daughters had moved earlier.

In 2004, Górnik Zabrze's stadium was named after him.

Names

[edit | edit source]

The German surname of the Pohl family was changed to Pol in 1952 as a result of the polonization of names common in Communist Poland. After moving to Germany, he reverted to using his original name.[citation needed]
