Ansgar Brinkmann (born July 5, 1969 in Vechta ) is a former German soccer player . In his long career Brinkmann was under contract with numerous clubs . He is one of the players with the most club changes in Germany and, along with Bernd Schneider, was one of the last street footballers in Germany.

Football career

Brinkmann grew up as the youngest of seven siblings (including Ingrid , former women's Bundesliga player for the FFC Brauweiler-Pulheim ) in Bakum in the Oldenburger Münsterland . As an A-youth he was appointed to the Lower Saxony selection. When he was 15 years old, talent scouts from Bayer 05 Uerdingen discovered him and moved to Krefeld. During his time at Bayer, he also did his vocational training year in the automotive trade .

He began his professional career at the age of 18 in 1987 at VfL Osnabrück in the 2nd Bundesliga . In the 1990/1991 season, the fast winger moved to league rivals Preußen Münster , where he quickly became a crowd favorite. At the end of the season he was relegated to the Oberliga Westfalen with the Prussians , but stayed with the club for two more years. In 1993 Brinkmann returned to the 2nd Bundesliga and signed a contract with 1. FSV Mainz 05 .

After a short interlude in Münster in 1995 and further positions in Gütersloh , Verl and Cloppenburg , he moved to Eintracht Frankfurt , with whom he was promoted to the Bundesliga in 1998 . After a season in the first division, Brinkmann played again for a few years in the 2. Bundesliga with Tennis Borussia Berlin , again with VfL Osnabrück and Arminia Bielefeld . With Arminia Bielefeld he was promoted to the Bundesliga in 2002 and scored two goals in 30 games.

In 2003 Brinkmann moved to LR Ahlen . In the winter break of 2003/04 he moved to the Austrian Bundesliga club FC Kärnten , in January 2005 to Dynamo Dresden and in January 2006 again to Prussia Münster. With the Prussians he was relegated to the league. Brinkmann completed the last game of his career as a professional footballer for Münster on May 13, 2007 in the Oberliga game against the second team of FC Schalke 04 .

On March 27, 2009, his farewell game took place in front of 4,100 spectators in Bielefeld's SchücoArena . The game between the Ansgar team and the Arminia Allstars ended 6: 6. Shortly before the end, Brinkmann symbolically got his last red card. He managed his lap of honor during the song "This Way" by Xavier Naidoo . The game among other things, took Thomas Hassler , Fredi Bobič , Uwe Bein , Sergej Barbarez and Stefan Kretzschmar part.

In September 2009, he acquired his A-trainer license at the Hennef sports school ( Soccer Association Middle Rhine ) and plans to train to become a soccer teacher . At the same time he works as a player scout for a Cologne sports agency.

For the 2012/13 season, the district league club TSV Juist Brinkmann signed, for which he played up to the 2016/2017 season every now and then. Since the winter of 2016, Brinkmann has been part of the legendary team of KFC Uerdingen 05 , for which he takes part in various indoor soccer tournaments, among other things.

Reputation as "enfant terrible"

Ansgar Brinkmann made headlines outside of the football field too, earning him the nickname “Trinkmann”. In Osnabrück, for example, he fled an alcohol check on foot and only turned up hours later to pick up the vehicle key. In addition, Brinkmann was involved in criminal offenses in Bielefeld, Berlin and Gütersloh, including a fine of 36,000 euros for bodily harm. The bankruptcy of a rehab center and investments in a shopping mall in Bielefeld, which Brinkmann claims to have lost more than one million euros, brought him to court.

His reputation as an enfant terrible did not damage Brinkmann's popularity with football fans, but rather promoted his cult status. Typical words that came up with Brinkmann in sports coverage were “white Brazilian”, “audience favorite”, “cult player” and “one of the last 'real guys' in the Bundesliga”, especially since interviews with Brinkmann are casual and provocative Sayings differed from the interview statements of many other professional footballers. On the Bielefeld local broadcaster Radio Bielefeld , he was given his own comedy series called "Mission: Relegation". Here he coined the phrase: “Nobody needs that.” He dedicated this statement to opposing teams and players. The announcement on his answering machine is legendary: “I can be reached in my local pub by five in the morning”.

In a radio column on 1 Live in 2015, Brinkmann admitted to having used the doping agent Captagon once in a relegation battle .

Other public appearances

In January 2018, Brinkmann was a participant in the twelfth season of the reality show I'm a star - Get me out of here! He left the camp at his own request after ten days.
