Fred Schaub (born August 28, 1960 in Fulda ; † April 22, 2003 ) was a German football player .

Schaub came to Eintracht Frankfurt from SV Neuhof in 1976 , and in the 1978/79 season, as a center forward, Schaub was a regular player in the DFB's A junior national team. On January 13, 1979, Schaub made his debut in the Bundesliga team of Frankfurt, by the end of the season he had ten missions and scored two goals. In the following season he only made six appearances in the Bundesliga. In the 1980 UEFA Cup final , Eintracht Frankfurt and Borussia Mönchengladbach faced each other. The Mönchengladbach team won the first leg 3-2, in the Frankfurt second leg Fred Schaub came on for Norbert Nachtweih in the 77th minute and scored the only goal in the game in the 81st minute. Thanks to the away goals regulation, the Frankfurters won the UEFA Cup.

Despite his image as a cup hero, Schaub could not assert himself as a regular player in the next season either, after 21 Bundesliga games and three goals he moved to SpVgg Fürth in the 2nd Bundesliga during the 1980/81 season . There he came in two and a half years to 85 second division games, in which he scored 36 goals. After this successful period, Schaub tried again to break through in the Bundesliga in the 1983/84 season, but after only five games for Borussia Dortmund he returned to the 2nd division and stormed for Hannover 96 . In the 1984/85 season the Hanoverians succeeded in promotion and Schaub formed the first division tower of the Hanoverians in the 1985/86 season together with Siegfried Reich and Michael Gue . Schaub scored nine goals in 31 games, Reich and Gue scored eight each. Nevertheless, Hanover was relegated and Schaub moved to SC Freiburg , which also played in the 2nd division. Schaub stayed there for two years before moving to Austria after 58 first division games with 13 goals and 208 second division games with 67 goals. There he played for FC Admira / Wacker , VfB Mödling , Favoritner AC and USC Wampersdorf and stayed in Austria after the end of his career.

Schaub was a junior coach at VfB Admira Wacker Mödling when he died on April 22, 2003 in a car accident on the A 7 near Fulda. His 8-year-old son Louis , who later became an Austrian national soccer player, survived injured. Another son is Fabian Schaub, who plays soccer for Buchonia Flieden in the Hessenliga.
