József Horváth (born 21 May 1949) is a Hungarian former footballer who played for Újpest FC and Rot-Weiss Essen, and in the North American Soccer League between 1978 and 1981 for the Rochester Lancers, Washington Diplomats and San Jose Earthquakes. He played at the international level for Hungary. Horváth also spent time in the American Soccer League, United Soccer League, and played indoor soccer in both the NASL and Major Indoor Soccer League.

He made his senior international debut for Hungary on 1 April 1906, during a 1–1 draw with Bohemia (later known as Czechoslovakia). This made him the youngest player to ever earn a cap with Hungary.[1]
