Herbert Briem (born June 12, 1957 ) is a former German soccer player and coach . He later worked as a functionary for VfB Stuttgart .

Athletic career

Briem came from the youth of SV Bonlanden . He came to 1. Göppinger SV via FV 09 Nürtingen and TSV Schönaich . With the founding member of the 1978 newly created Oberliga Baden-Württemberg , he was runner-up behind in the first season SSV Ulm 1846 , the following year he missed with the team two points behind the upstart VfB Eppingen Ranking third promotion to the 2. Bundesliga again barely. Then he moved in the summer of 1980 to the league champions, the amateurs of VfB Stuttgart . Under coach Willi Entenmann he was one of the regulars, in the 1982/83 season he placed in the top three of the top scorers' list of the third highest division with 19 goals this season,

For the 1983/84 season Briem joined the then second division club SC Freiburg . He made his professional debut on August 6, 1983 in a 0-0 draw at MSV Duisburg on the first day of the match . Briem played a total of 15 second division games for Freiburg. Here he managed a goal - the 2-1 winner in the home game against the Stuttgarter Kickers on September 17, 1983. After just one season, however, he returned to VfB Stuttgart, where he continued to play mainly in the amateur team. Nevertheless, he came in the Bundesliga in the 1984/85 season to two appearances for the reigning German champions, for whom he also played once in the European Cup .

Among the amateurs, Briem was under the coaches Hans Arnold , again Entenmann and Ralf Rangnick , and after returning he formed the successful offensive with Axel Thoma and Michael Spies . The team now placed itself mainly in the middle of the table. In the summer of 1986 they parted ways, Briem returned to FV 09 Nürtingen in the fifth class national league. There he only stayed a half series before he returned to the VfB amateurs, where in November 1986 Walter Güntner had inherited Rangnick as coach. In the summer of 1988 he was relegated from the league with the team under coach Jochen Rücker at the side of Marcus Sorg , Eberhard Trautner , Klaus Mirwald , Irsen Latifovic and Axel Jüptner , having played in 33 league games and scored five goals. Behind co-relegated SpVgg Ludwigsburg , he missed the direct rise with the team as second in the table, the following year they were tied with VfL Sindelfingen champions of the Württemberg Association League . In the 1990/91 season he was in all 34 league games on the field, after another 15 games in the following season, he ended his career.

After the end of his active career, he worked as a coach for VfB Stuttgart Amateure in the 1995/96 season.

After Briem had worked in scouting at VfB Stuttgart, he took over the office of sports director of VfB Stuttgart in the summer of 2004 and together with Jochen Schneider formed the sports management of the club. Under his leadership, Giovanni Trapattoni, a well-known coach, was hired in 2005 , but the club slipped into the bottom of the table and after the sales of Kevin Kuranyi and Aljaksandr Hleb in the summer of that year, he was accused of having played a major role in the development of his transfer policy. In January 2006 he was replaced by the previous VfB player Horst Heldt as sports director, but stayed with the club and became head of the scouting department . In 2007 there were brief rumors of a return to SC Freiburg after he and Robert Piller supported club president Achim Stocker in the search for a successor for Volker Finke . In February 2009, Briem announced his departure from VfB Stuttgart at the end of June of the year after he was seen by the public as one of the people responsible for the misery that occurred after winning the championship in 2007, and together with ex-professional Egon Flad he founded a player consultancy company.
