Osny Augusto Werner (11 October 1898 - 14 May 1971), commonly known as Osny, was a Brazilian football player.[1][2] He was a member of the Brazilian squad at the 1916 and 1917 Copa America playing alongside Arthur Friedenreich, Amílcar Barbuy, and Casemiro. Osny, a Botafogo player, was one of the most cult and iconic figures in the early days of the Brazilian football. After retiring from football he started a new career as a referee.
The blanket centaur
Osny was known for his quirky style as he wore eyeglasses, a cap and had a towel wrapped around his neck during the games. He inevitably caught the attention of the crowd in Botafogo's away games. Famous Brazilian writer Nelson Rodrigues once described him as the blanket centaur, a phrase that ever since became Osny's nickname.
