Andreas Vogler (born February 5, 1965 in West Berlin ) is a German soccer player .

Vogler's extraordinary sporting career began in Berlin at VfB Neukölln. He later played at Tennis Borussia. Here he drew attention in the Oberliga Berlin accumulating in the 1986/87 season as second on the list of goalscorers with 24 hits. In 1987 he moved to Hertha BSC , with whom he was promoted to the 2nd Bundesliga in 1988. After the start of the following season he left Hertha without having played a second division game. He moved to Cyprus to the EPA Larnaka , for which he was able to score 22 goals in the cup and championship in 1988/89, but due to the club's relegation, his engagement ended after a year and he went to the Oberliga Westfalen FC Gütersloh, which he also pursued had to leave a relegation at the end of the 1989/90 season . After the fall of the Berlin Wall, he was the second football player to move from the west to the east on July 3, 1990, when he joined BSV Stahl Brandenburg for the last eastern league season in 1990/91 . He is often referred to as the first footballer to move to the East, but according to Märkischer Volksstimme on July 3, 1990, Jörg Blüthmann , also at BSV Stahl Brandenburg, came before him on July 2, 1990 .

Another extraordinary step in his career followed in the 1991/92 season when Vogler moved to the capital of Venezuela to FC Caracas in South America . Here he struck, who alongside Günter Thiele , Olaf Seier and André Hennig from the German club president Dr. Guillermo Valentiner had been directed to the southern hemisphere. In his first season he not only became Venezuelan champion, but Vogler, known by the fans as "el bombero" (Eng. "The fireman"), made a decisive contribution to winning the title with his 22 goals. His coach Manuel Plasencia even called him “the best number 9 in South America”. Overall, Vogler was the second top scorer in the club's history. During his time in Caracas, Vogler won the Venezuelan championship in 1992 and 1994, took part in the club's second and third cup wins in the Copa Venezuela in 1993 and 1994 and took part with Caracas in both the Copa Libertadores and the Copa Conmebol .

After returning to Germany, Vogler played for the Berlin clubs Spandauer SV and Tasmania Neukölln, among others . After an injury, he reduced his commitment and went to the Hertha BSC senior team in 1999, where he started as a goalkeeper. At the age of 42, he moved to SV Blau Weiss Berlin (district league) in 2007 , where he was also used in the first team. With this club, he was once again champion in the Association League Ü40 in 2015.
