Márton Bukovi (10th December, 1903 - February, 1985) was a Hungarian football (soccer) manager who was instrumental in the development of the 4-2-4 football formation. While at the club Vörös Lobogó he modified the WM formation to a WW, which was later used by fellow countryman Gusztáv Sebes in the successful Hungarian national team of the early 1950s. This was later refined to produce the 4-2-4 formation and adopted by successful teams, including the Brazilian national team that won the 1958 FIFA World Cup.
During his club-career Bukovi coached Građanski Zagreb (1935-45), Dinamo Zagreb (1945-47), MTK (Vörös Lobogó) (1947-54), Bp. Dózsa (Újpest) (1955-56), MTK (1957-59), Diósgyőr (1962-64) and Olympiacos (1965-67).
