career
Nyers was born in France to a Hungarian immigrant family. He reached the peak of his career in the 1940s and 1950s.
After he had become a regular player at Újpest Budapest in the first Hungarian league and had won the Hungarian championship in 1945 and 1946 , he moved in 1946 via Viktoria Žižkov ( Czechoslovakia ) to the French first division team Stade Français Paris .
After two years in Paris , the Italian first division club Inter Milan recruited him . Here he developed into one of the strongest strikers in Serie A history . In his first season he was the top scorer in the league with 26 goals . He scored 133 goals in 182 games for Inter. Twice, in 1952/53 and 1953/54 , he was Italian champion with Inter under coach Alfredo Foni .
After winning the second championship, Nyers left Milan and moved to AS Roma via Servette Geneva . He stayed there for two years and then let his career end with lower-class Italian clubs.
