Bükössy was born on 12 August 1936 in Mediaș, Romania and began playing football in 1948 at local club Sparta.[1] In 1954 he moved to neighboring club, Flacăra where he spent two seasons playing in Divizia B.[1] Afterwards he had a short spell at Progresul CPCS București, also in Divizia B.[1] Bükössy switched teams again when he joined CCA București where he made his Divizia A debut under coach Ștefan Dobay on 27 May 1956 in a 3–1 away loss to Progresul Oradea.[1] He made a total of three appearances in his first season spent at the club, helping it win the title.[1][5] After two more seasons spent with The Military Men, Bükössy went to play for rivals Dinamo București.[1][3][4] In his first season with The Red Dogs, they finished in second place in the league and won the 1958–59 Cupa României, but coach Iuliu Baratky did not use him in the final.[1][3][4][6] In his second season he scored once in a derby that ended in a 3–3 draw against his former team, CCA.[7] Afterwards, Bükössy went to play two years at Divizia B club Dinamo Obor București.[1] He returned to Divizia A football in 1962, joining Farul Constanța where he had a successful period in his career, being a part of the team's prolific offensive trio alongside Constantin Dinulescu and Ion Ciosescu.[1][2][3] Bükössy made his last Divizia A appearance on 7 May 1967 in Farul's 1–1 draw against Politehnica Timișoara, totaling 103 matches with 23 goals in the competition.[1] He ended his career after playing three more seasons in Divizia B at Portul Constanța.[1]
