Ernest Pohl (3 November 1932 – 12 September 1995), a.k.a. Ernst Pol, was a Polish footballer who played as a striker. With 186 goals, he is the Polish top division's record goalscorer.^[1]

Pohl scored 39 goals in 46 international matches for Poland national football team and to this day remains the most prolific Ekstraklasa. He played for Slavia Ruda Śląska, Orzeł Łódź between 1952 and 1953, CWKS Warsaw between 1953 and 1956 and Górnik Zabrze between 1957 and 1967. During the 1960 Summer Olympics in Rome, he scored five goals in a 6–1 win against Tunisia.^[2]

Following the fall of the Berlin Wall and German reunification in 1990, he relocated to Germany, where his wife and daughters had moved earlier.

In 2004, Górnik Zabrze's stadium was named after him.
