Ezio Loik (Italian pronunciation: [ˈɛttsjo ˈlɔik]; 26 September 1919 – 4 May 1949) was an Italian footballer who played as midfielder.

Born in Fiume, Loik began his career with Fiumana. He made his Serie A debut with Milan in 1937, and after three seasons, moved to Venezia. In Venice, he formed a notable partnership with Valentino Mazzola, and won the Coppa Italia in 1941. The following season, he moved to Torino, where he immediately won the domestic double and five consecutive Serie A titles.

At the international level, Loik represented the Italy national team. He died in the 1949 Superga air disaster, along with the entire Grande Torino team.[1]

Club career

[edit]

Loik was born in Fiume (then part of Italy, now Rijeka, Croatia). He played as a midfielder, debuting for U.S. Fiumana aged 17 in the 1936–37 serie C tournament. After three seasons in Serie A with A.C. Milan, he moved to Venezia, where he obtained a third place and a Coppa Italia in 1941.[1]

He moved to Torino in 1942, where he formed a notable midfield duo with Valentino Mazzola, who had also previously played for Venezia.[1]

With the Grande Torino side, Loik won five consecutive Serie A scudetti and one further Coppa Italia (1942–43), until dying with most of the team in the Superga air disaster near Turin, on 4 May 1949, which also made up much of the Italy national team at the time.[1]

International career

[edit]

Loik was also capped nine times for the Italy national football team between 1942 and 1949, scoring four goals.[2]
