Alfred Bloch (22 February 1878 – 20 June 1902), also known as Jean Bloch, was a French footballer who played as a defender and who competed in the football tournament at the 1900 Olympic Games in Paris, winning a silver medal as a member of the USFSA Olympic team representing France, which was primarily made up of Club Français players. Bloch was Jewish.

Together with Lucien Huteau, Marcel Lambert, Gaston Peltier, Georges Garnier, and captain Eugène Fraysse, Bloch was a starter in the Club Français team that won the 1896 USFSA Football Championship, doing so without losing a single match.

On 26 December 1897, Bloch started as a midfielder in the very first football match in the history of the Parc des Princes in front of 500 spectators, in which Club Français was defeated 1–3 by the English Ramblers. On 28 March 1898, he started in the 1898 Coupe Manier final at the Vélodrome de Vincennes, helping his side to a 10–0 win over Paris Star. In the following year, on 16 April 1899, Bloch started in the play-off match against Standard AC to decide the 1898–99 USFSA Paris championship, which ended in a 3–2 win. This victory qualified the club to the 1899 USFSA national championship, in which Club Français withdrew from the final before facing Le Havre AC.
Bloch was a member of the Club Français team that won the 1899–1900 USFSA Paris championship. On 6 May 1900, Bloch missed the final of the 1900 USFSA Football Championship against Le Havre AC, which ended in another loss to Le Havre AC (0–1), partly because Club Français' "defensive line was disorganized due to the absence of Bloch".

Bloch was listed as a midfielder for the USFSA team at the 1900 Olympic Games. He was selected for both matches, which ended in a 0–4 loss to Upton Park on 20 September, and in a 6–2 win over a team representing Belgium three days later. The French team came second and Bloch was thus awarded with a silver medal.




Death


Bloch died of meningitis in Paris on 20 June 1902, at the age of 24, and was buried in Antwerp. If the two matches played by the French team during the 1900 Olympic Games are considered, then he is the first French international to have died.
