Konrad Kapler (25 February 1925 – 23 October 1991) was a Polish footballer who played as a winger.
He played for Celtic from 1947 to 1949. He had previously played for the Forres Mechanics and was scouted for the club whilst playing in an exhibition match for the Polish Army. The right sided midfielder found his first team opportunities limited and was released in 1949 after only 8 appearances; he then played for Rochdale, for whom he made four league appearances[4]
