Hans Klodt (10 June 1914 – 7 November 1996) was a German football player.
Born in Gelsenkirchen, he was the older brother of Bernhard Klodt (also an international footballer - they are among 14 sets of siblings to have played for Germany).[1] Like his brother, he played for FC Schalke 04 where between 1936 and 1948 he stood in goal. In 1937 he won the German Bundesliga as well as the Tschammer Cup. In 1942 and 1943, he was replaced by Heinz Flotho due to a war injury, and thus missed winning the championship in 1942.
His career began not at Schalke 04 but at BV Gelsenkirchen. In 1948, he left Schalke for Beckum, where he played until 1955.
