After he started playing soccer at TSV Bodenmais, Josef Weikl moved to SC Zwiesel. In 1976, the talented midfielder came to Fortuna Düsseldorf as an amateur.

Together with Rudi Bommer , Herbert Zimmer and Josef Hickersberger , he formed the midfield of Fortuna. The DFB reacted immediately and immediately used the talent on September 21, 1977 in the German national soccer team of amateurs at the friendly against France in Bielefeld. He played his second international match with the DFB amateurs on March 22, 1978 in Lucca against Italy. Surprisingly, coach Dietrich Weise also used the amateur in the final of the DFB Cup on April 15, 1978 in Gelsenkirchen against 1. FC Cologne . Düsseldorf lost the game with 0-2 goals. In May 1978 Weikl took part in the final round of the UEFA Amateur Cup in Athens with the amateur national team in the semi-finals and the game for 3rd place. As an amateur, the man from Bavaria played twelve games for Fortuna in the 1977/78 round and scored one goal. In the Bundesliga, Fortuna Düsseldorf went over midfield to the bottom of the table in the following years. The coaches Hans-Dieterippenhauer , Otto Rehhagel , Heinz Höher , Jörg Berger , Willibert Kremer and Dieter Brei shook hands until relegation could not be averted in the 1986/87 season. Josef Weikl was an indispensable regular at Fortuna from 1978/79 to 1986/87 and played 303 games with 25 goals in the Bundesliga. The veteran also ran under coach Aleksandar Ristić in the 1987/88 season in the 2nd Bundesliga for Fortuna in 36 games on the field. In 1988/89 he joined the amateur club TuRU Düsseldorf , where he also worked as a trainer. 1.

Fortuna lost the final against FC Barcelona with 3: 4 goals after extra time. In the 1979/80 season, the hurdle of Glasgow Rangers in the first round was immediately too high.
