István Závodi, often referred to as Istvan Zavadsky and nicknamed "Pista" (pronounced Pisht'uh; 27 July 1906 – 10 November 1987) was a Hungarian footballer, who capped twice for Hungary national football team.

He spent the majority of his career in France, with SO Montpellier, a team he coached later. During his time in Montpellier in the early 1930s he became close friends with the future leader of Albania, Enver Hoxha.
