Johnny Dusbaba

Born in the Schilderswijk in The Hague to a fairground operator, Dusbaba started his career at hometown club FC Den Haag, before joining Hans Kraay-coached Dutch giants Ajax in 1974. A tough, but somewhat careless defender, he moved abroad to play in Belgium for Anderlecht alongside compatriots Peter Ressel, Arie Haan and Rob Rensenbrink and later for Standard Liège. With Anderlecht he won the 1977–78 European Cup Winners' Cup. After spending time at NAC, he finished his career at Sint-Niklaas.

Dusbaba made his debut for the Netherlands in an August 1977 FIFA World Cup qualification match against Iceland and earned a total of 4 caps, scoring no goals. His final international was an October 1978 UEFA Euro qualification match against Switzerland. He was a preliminary member for the 1978 FIFA World Cup, but was not part of the final squad. He later cited his fear of flying and the volatile situation in Argentina to be the reasons.

During his playing career, Dusbaba was known for selling various items such as fur coats, video recorders and TVs from the trunk of his car. He also used Anderlecht's equipment room as a shop selling the same items. After retiring as a player, he owned a fashion shop in Oostende.
