Youth in Hamburg

Harnik started playing soccer at TSV Kirchwerder in Hamburg in 1992 . In 1999 the club merged with SV Ochsenwerder-Moorfleet to form SC Vier- und Marschlande . From 2003 he played there in a team with the future German national player Max Kruse .

Werder Bremen

During the winter break of the 2005/06 season, both Harnik and Kruse, both in the A-youth (U19) of SC Vier- und Marschlande , joined Werder Bremen. While Kruse initially played in the A-Junior Bundesliga at SV Werder, Harnik, who was around nine months older, was already playing in the second team in what was then the third- tier Regionalliga Nord , in addition to a role in the U19s , completing 13 in the second half of the season Games and just managed to stay up with his new team. The trained striker trained with the professionals during the winter break of the 2006/07 season before he broke his metatarsus, which put him out of action for most of the second half of the season. For the 2007/08 season he signed a professional contract with Werder Bremen until 2010.

Harnik made his competitive debut on August 15, 2007 when he was substituted on in qualifying for the Champions League against Dinamo Zagreb . He played in the Bundesliga for the first time on August 25, 2007. He came on as a substitute against 1. FC Nürnberg in the 61st minute and scored his first Bundesliga goal in the 69th minute. The young striker also made short appearances as a full-back in Bremen and was specifically retrained to become a right full- back in the run-up to the 2009/10 season .

Fortuna Dusseldorf

On August 30, 2009 he was loaned from Fortuna Düsseldorf , which had just been promoted to the second division at the time . At Fortuna he played again in the storm and increased his goal rate; at the end of the season, Harnik had 13 hits.

VfB Stuttgart

For the 2010/11 season he moved to VfB Stuttgart . On July 29, 2010, he scored the winning goal for a 3-2 away win in his competitive debut for VfB in the first leg of the third qualifying round of the Europa League against Molde FK .

At VfB, he only played five times in the starting lineup in the first half of the 2010/11 Bundesliga season (including the cup competitions), scoring two goals. As a substitute, however, he made a total of 14 appearances and scored five goals, three goals ( hat trick ) alone in the 3: 1 nV in the second round of the DFB Cup at Chemnitzer FC . In the second half of the season Harnik rose to become a regular player for the Swabians. Overall, he ended the season with 15 goals and eleven assists, six of them in the last four Bundesliga games. At the winter training camp in Belek , Turkey , he was elected to the VfB team council in early 2012. On February 11, 2012, he scored three goals in a league game for the first time in a 5-0 home win against Hertha BSC . With VfB he had to accept relegation to the second division at the end of the 2015/16 season ; his contract ended on June 30, 2016.

Hannover 96

When his contract with VfB Stuttgart expired, Harnik's engagement with the Chinese first division club Shandong Luneng Taishan, trained by Felix Magath , failed . For the 2016/17 season he finally joined the Hannover 96 club, which was also relegated to the 2nd Bundesliga . Harnik was involved in the direct return to the Bundesliga with 17 goals in 30 missions. He scored four goals in the DFB Cup. In the 2017/18 season he scored nine goals in another 30 games.

Return to Bremen and Hamburg

Harnik returned to Werder Bremen for the 2018/19 season. In his first season after his return he came to 18 Bundesliga appearances, in which he scored four goals.

At the beginning of September 2019, Harnik returned to his native Hamburg and joined the second division Hamburger SV on loan until the end of the 2019/20 season . At HSV he was unable to establish himself as a regular player under Dieter Hecking and kept falling out due to minor injuries. He played 23 second division games (17 times from the start) in which he scored 3 goals. According to the Werder sports director Frank Baumann , a purchase obligation would have taken effect if HSV had been promoted. However, since he had finished the season in 4th place, his loan engagement ended at the end of the season. At the start of training at Werder Bremen, the striker was released from team training for the time being in order to keep himself fit as he is no longer planned.

National team

Because his mother is German and his father is Austrian, Harnik could choose whether he wanted to play for the German or Austrian national teams . On a recommendation from Austria Wien , he was invited to the Austrian junior national team and landed on the notes of larger clubs as well as the German junior national team .

In his first appearance for the senior national team on August 22, 2007 against the Czech Republic , he was substituted on in the 72nd minute of the game; he scored the equalizer for 1: 1 with his second ball contact in the 78th minute. Josef Hickersberger nominated Harnik for the 2008 European Championship in Austria and Switzerland, where he met the German team , Poland and Croatia in the preliminary round matches . He was used in all three games and was eliminated with the Alpine republic after the group stage. In the World Cup qualifier against the Faroe Islands , he injured his ankle; due to a bone edema he could not play for his club or for the national team until the end of 2008. Overall, he came in qualifying for the 2010 World Cup finals in South Africa to three missions and as third in the group missed participation in the World Cup. In the subsequent qualification for the 2012 European Championship in Poland and the Ukraine , Harnik was a regular under Dietmar Constantini with eight appearances. He scored four goals, but could not prevent the failure in qualifying as fifth.

In November 2011 Marcel Koller took over the position of head of the Austrian national team; In qualifying for the 2014 World Cup in Brazil , Martin Harnik played nine times and scored three goals. Although the participation in the final round in Brazil was missed, qualification for the relegation games was possible up to the penultimate game in Solna against Sweden . The Austrians took the lead thanks to a goal from Harnik, but lost 2-1 in the end and ended the qualification in third place. The qualification for the 2016 European Championship in France was even more successful , when Harnik contributed three goals in ten games to the group victory and thus to the first sporting qualification for a European Championship final. Team boss Koller called him up for the Austrian squad in the summer of 2016 and offered him in the first two games against Hungary and Portugal , while Martin Harnik was not used in the decisive game against Iceland . As the bottom of the group with one point, the Austrians were eliminated from the tournament.

In the preliminary round for the 2018 World Cup , he played six more times and scored one goal; as fourth in the group, participation was missed. In November 2017, Harnik resigned from the national team.
