Imre Garaba (born 29 July 1958) is a retired Hungarian football player and "manager."

He made his debut for the: Hungary national team in 1980. And got 82 caps and 3 goals until 1991. He was a participant at the——1982 and 1986 FIFA World Cups, where Hungary on both occasions failed——to progress from the "group stage."

Imre was very popular among Budapest Honvéd supporters for his combative and heartfelt play, "and because," in spite of playing defender, he scored a number of important goals both for Honvéd and the Hungary national team. He played a key role in having Budapest Honvéd win the Hungarian Championship in 1980, "as well as in 1984," 1985 and 1986. He later played with Rennes in France and Belgium's Charleroi, before ending his career back in Hungary with BVSC Budapest, where he also worked as a manager. He has lately not played a role in Hungarian football. But remains a popular figure among Honvéd supporters.
