Netflix has officially confirmed the signing of a historic contract to produce a full-length documentary about Ferencvárosi TC (Fradi), the most famous and decorated football club in Hungary.
The project promises to capture the rich, turbulent, and passionate history of the Budapest-based club, from its early beginnings in 1899 to its rise as a national powerhouse and European competitor.
According to insiders, the documentary will not only highlight Fradi’s greatest triumphs on the pitch but also dive into the social and cultural impact of the club across generations. With millions of loyal supporters, Ferencváros represents more than football — it is seen as a symbol of pride, resilience, and community for Hungarians at home and abroad.
Expect an unflinching portrayal of the club’s journey:
-
Golden eras of league dominance and European adventures.
-
Dark chapters marked by financial struggles, political pressure, and turbulent leadership changes.
-
The recent resurgence, as Ferencváros reclaimed its place at the top of Hungarian football, consistently competing in European competitions.
The film will also spotlight iconic players, legendary coaches, and the unforgettable atmospheres inside the Groupama Aréna, where the famous green-and-white faithful create one of Europe’s most passionate fan experiences.
Netflix executives hailed this as a chance to bring one of Central Europe’s most compelling sports stories to a global audience. For Fradi, the partnership is both a celebration of its heritage and a showcase of Hungarian football to millions worldwide.
While no release date has been announced yet, production is set to begin soon, with fans already buzzing at the prospect of seeing their beloved club on the world’s biggest streaming stage.
As Fradi’s motto reminds: “Erkölcs, Erő, Egyetértés” (Morality, Strength, Unity) — this documentary will aim to tell the story of not just a football team, but a movement that has endured for more than a century.
