János Csank (born 27 October 1946 Ózd, Hungary) is a former goalkeeper, he is Hungary's most successful football coach.

Csank won the National Championship twice, at first in 1994 with Vác FC-Samsung and in 2001 in charge of Ferencváros.

He resigned from Ferencváros in April 2008 after a 2–2 draw against Makó left Fradi in third place eight points behind NB II (Eastern Group) leaders Kecskeméti TE.

Csank was manager of the Hungarian national football team between April 1996 and November 1997. During this time, Hungary advanced from the World Cup qualification group but suffered a devastating 1–7, 5–0 defeat against FR Yugoslavia.

After the losses against Yugoslavia, Csank resigned from his position and was followed by Bertalan Bicskei.

Csank is recognizable for his dark humor. At half-time in the losing match against the Yugoslavian team, when a reporter asked him what he's going to say to the players, he replied: "Surely not, keep it up!". At the end of this match, at the interview he said that the major cause of the loss was, "I didn't know, that some of my players are so lame."
