career

Helmut Siber started his career at SV Hall , from which he joined FC Wacker Innsbruck in the highest Austrian league in 1964 . In Innsbruck he harmonized with Franz Wolny and Helmut Redl, especially in the storm . There were two runner-up titles during this time for Helmut Siber, who had his best season in 1966/67 with 15 goals. In that year, the striker celebrated his debut in the Austrian national team against England on May 27, 1967 , and Helmut Siber played a total of ten more international matches, in which he scored four goals, until 1969. A year earlier, in 1968, the striker had Innsbruck left and played for a season in the German Bundesliga with Kickers Offenbach before returning to Austria and going to WSG Swarovski Wattens .

Two seasons in Wattens followed, a year at Donawitzer SV Alpine and finally in 1972 the return to Innsbruck. Helmut Siber was able to become Austrian champion here, but after the departure of coach Egon Herlan he had no more appearances. So Helmut Siber decided to end his professional career at the second-class FC Dornbirn in Vorarlberg in 1913 , with whom he failed as regional league champion in 1974 in relegation to promotion to the Bundesliga.
