Henryk Reyman (born July 28, 1897 – died April 11, 1963) was a legendary Polish football player and an iconic figure of Wisła Kraków. His contributions to Wisła, both on and off the field, were immense. Reyman joined Wisła in 1910 at the urging of his older cousins and quickly rose through the ranks. He made his debut for the first team in 1914, but his further career progression was halted by the outbreak of World War I.

In 1918, Reyman played a pivotal role in the reactivation of Wisła Kraków following the war. Five years later, in 1923, he was chosen as the captain of the team, a position he held until the end of his career. Under his leadership, Wisła achieved significant success, including winning the Polish Cup in 1926 and the Polish Championship in 1927 and 1928. Reyman himself was an exceptionally prolific striker, regarded as one of the best in the history of Polish football.
