Axel Keller (born March 25, 1977 in Karl-Marx-Stadt ) is a former German soccer goalkeeper .
Career
Axel Keller started playing football at FC Karl-Marx-Stadt (from 1990 Chemnitzer FC ). He came to the second division club FC Carl Zeiss Jena via the Altchemnitz BSC in 1998 , for which he had played a total of 57 second and regional division games by 2002 . After Keller was under contract with TSV 1860 Munich II for a year , he moved to the second division promoted 1. FC Schweinfurt 05 for the 2001/02 season .
After the relegation of Lower Franconia, coach Paul Linz brought him to the second division promoted Eintracht Trier in the summer of 2002 , where Keller became a regular goalkeeper from the 2003/04 season after only 12 appearances in the 2002/03 season . In the summer of 2004, coach Juri Schlünz from Bundesliga club Hansa Rostock was looking for a successor to the second goalkeeper Daniel Klewer , who had migrated to 1. FC Nürnberg, and found him in Axel Keller. In the competition for the goalkeeper position, however, Keller did not get past regular goalkeeper Mathias Schober and did not complete a single first or second division game for the Ostseestädter.
For the 2006/07 season , Axel Keller moved - practically in exchange with Jörg Hahnel - from Rostock to the second division club FC Erzgebirge Aue . There he became the goalkeeper after a field reference for the previous goalkeeper Tomasz Bobel on matchday 12 in the game against FC Carl Zeiss Jena and confirmed his place in the further course of the season with convincing performances. In the 2007/08 season Bobel initially returned to the Ore Mountains goal before he had to take a break from October 2007 due to a shoulder injury and Keller was again the regular goalkeeper until the end of March 2008. Since he wanted to be there when his daughter was born, instead of playing a game, an internal dispute broke out, at the end of which Bobel replaced Keller as the goalkeeper after recovering from a shoulder injury.
For the 2008/09 season , Axel Keller moved to Dynamo Dresden in the newly created single-track third division . After two and a half years as the goalkeeper of the Elbe city, Keller lost his place to Benjamin Kirsten in the second half of the 2010/11 season . The club then announced that Keller's contract, which was running out at the end of the season, should not be extended. After he was able to celebrate promotion to the 2nd Bundesliga with Dynamo, he ended his professional career and switched to the Saxon regional league for Heidenauer SV in July 2011 . With the club he was promoted to the Oberliga Nordost in 2012 . In January 2014, Keller joined VfL Pirna-Copitz and ended his career there in summer 2015.
