He was part of the Athletic squad in two stages. The first, between 1917 and 1918. The second, at the beginning of the 22-23 season. At Barça he was also in two stages. Between 1918 and 1920 he was the protagonist of the 1919 Cup final, against Arenas de Getxo. Barça lost 2-5 and Lakatos scored one of Barcelona's goals. The 1920 club also lived in the club, and Barça beat Athletic precisely. That day, Lakatos was not aligned. He returned to Les Corts at the end of the 22-23 campaign, after his time at Athletic.
