career

Paul Lehmann came to Cologne in the summer of 1949 via the Karlsruher Fußball-Verein (1 game in the Oberliga Süd 1946/47) and TuRa Bonn (1948/49: Rhine district, group 2). In the league promoted he came in the 1949/50 season in 29 games in the football Oberliga West at 1. FC Cologne under the then player- coach Hennes Weisweiler to use. He scored eight goals alongside fellow players like Franz Alexius, Hans Graf, Stefan Langen, Walter Nussbaum and Hans Schäfer. Although he could thus be regarded as a regular player, he left the billy goats in the summer of 1950 and moved to Freiburg FC in the 2nd League South.

With the team from the Möslestadion , Lehmann won the championship in the 2nd league south in the 1955/56 season and Freiburg was promoted to the football league south . The 33-year-old only played in seven league games (1 goal) when he was promoted to the Oberliga in 1956/57 and ended his high-class playing career in the summer of 1957.

Lehmann was coach at FC Emmendingen for the 1957/58 season and laid the foundations for later success there, which culminated in 1964 with promotion to the second -rate regional soccer league South .
