Markus Schäfer (born April 16, 1963 ) is a former German soccer player and coach .

career

The midfielder and Viktoria Aschaffenburg twice celebrated the Hesse championship in the 1980s and thus promotion to the 2nd Bundesliga . In the first season of the 2. Bundesliga, 1985/86 , the climber from the stadium at Schönbusch took 13th place. Under coaches Kurt Geinzer (until April 1986) and Horst Heese , Schäfer completed 28 league games at the side of the two outstanding attackers Radomir Dubovina (36-10) and Cezary Tobollik (37-18) for the Viktoria and scored one goal. The debut in the second division took place on August 3, 1985 in the 0-1 home defeat - goal by Manfred Burgsmüller - against Rot-Weiß Oberhausen . In the second year, 1986/87, Horst Heese was replaced by Lothar Buchmann as coach in February 1987 , but relegation could not be prevented - without striker Tobollik and despite the change in goal from Valentin Herr to Claus Reitmaier . Midfielder Schäfer played 28 games and scored three goals. For Viktoria, Schäfer completed a total of 80 games in professional football in three years and scored six goals. After the first relegation in 1987, the direct return to the second Bundesliga succeeded in the following season in the Oberliga Hessen . The third season 2. Bundesliga, 1988/89 , brought about a good home record of 27:11 points for Schäfer and colleagues, due to the completely unsatisfactory 7:31 away count, Viktoria slipped through the final defeat on June 18, 1989 - 1: 2 at Wattenscheid 09 - still on the relegation ranks and thus re-entered the amateur camp. Again, Aschaffenburg had relied on a change of coach - Werner Nickel had replaced Kurt Geinzer in April 1989 - but the weakness away from home was too serious, and teammates Klaus Theiss and Rudi Bommer didn't change anything. Schäfer had played again in 24 league games and scored two goals. In the internal deployment list of the 2nd Bundesliga in Aschaffenburg, he takes fourth place behind Hans-Peter Knecht (97), Ingo Aulbach (92) and Peter Löhr (84). Schäfer also played extremely successfully with his club in the DFB Cup in 1987/88 . After winning over SG Wattenscheid 09 (4: 0, two goals by Schäfer), the previously undefeated Bundesliga leaders 1. FC Köln (1: 0) and KSV Hessen Kassel (1: 0), the amateur club reached the quarter-finals, where you had to admit defeat to SV Werder Bremen 1: 3 on your own pitch .

After relegation he stayed in Aschaffenburg in 1989/90 (7th place in the Oberliga Hessen ) before he joined Kickers Offenbach in the Oberliga Hessen in the 1990/91 season and with the OFC behind KSV Hessen Kassel and Rot- Weiss Frankfurt took third place.

As a player-coach, he joined the Bavarian regional division Eintracht Straßbessenbach in 1991/92 and led the club to the championship straight away. In the following years further promotions up to the district class were celebrated. In the spring of 1997, Markus Schäfer took over the coaching position at SV Alemannia Haibach , with whom he was promoted to the Bayern League. From 2006 to 2009 he was involved with the Bavarian regional top division club TuS Frammersbach .

His son Marcel Schäfer is also a professional soccer player and won the German championship with VfL Wolfsburg in 2009.
