Sebastian Toni Deisler (born January 5, 1980 in Lörrach ) is a former German soccer player .

Career

societies

Deisler began his career in the E-Jugend of FV Tumringen, a district club in Lörrach that was trained by his father. Since he was too young for this age group, he was only allowed to train in the club for the first two years. Via TuS Lörrach-Stetten and FV Lörrach , Deisler joined the youth department of Borussia Mönchengladbach in 1995 and, along with Marcel Ketelaer , Marco Villa and Robert Enke, was part of a "team of four" young players who were to form the framework of a new Gladbach team. In 1998/99 he was part of the professional squad and made his debut in the Bundesliga on September 8, 1998 (3rd matchday) in a 1-1 draw in the home game against Eintracht Frankfurt , when he came on for Markus Hausweiler in the 63rd minute ; he scored his first goal on March 6, 1999 (21st matchday) in a 2-0 home win over TSV 1860 Munich .

After only one year and the relegation of Borussia to the 2nd Bundesliga , he moved to Hertha BSC for a transfer fee of 4.5 million DM (plus further payments to Borussia Mönchengladbach for later international matches and a participation in later resale) , for which he came to the league 56 times in three seasons, scored nine goals and won the league cup in 2001.

With the season 2002/03 completed switching to Bayern Munich , he joined his last club as Active. Deisler played for Bayern - as playmaker and successor to Stefan Effenberg - until the winter break of the 2006/07 season , where he won several titles. In the 2003/04 season, Deisler was out for several months due to depression . On January 16, 2007, the 27-year-old midfielder drew the consequences of numerous injuries and illnesses that had thrown him back over and over again in recent years, and told Uli Hoeneß the end of his career. He justified this with a lack of confidence in the stability of his knee.

Although Deisler said at the time that his move was final, Hoeneß, who, according to his own statements, had long tried to change his mind, announced that Deisler's contract with FC Bayern Munich, which was valid until June 2009, would only be suspended to enable the player to return. Deisler's declaration about the end of his career, however, stood. He didn't play any more games.

At an event organized by the Robert Enke Foundation in November 2019, Hoeneß gave a more detailed account of how Deisler's career had gone in the last few days. In January 2007, FC Bayern was in a training camp in Dubai . Deisler visited Hoeneß several times in his suite and repeatedly gave him to understand that he “could no longer” and that he was at the end of his tether. The conversations often dragged on from the evenings until the early hours and on the last day Deisler even left Hoeneß half an hour before the team breakfast. In the training that followed, Deisler was the best man on the pitch, according to Hoeneß. After arriving in Germany, Deisler asked for another interview, in which he announced that he would finally end his career.

National team

Deisler was a participant in the U-17 World Cup in 1997 in Egypt and came in two games of the preliminary round on 5th (1-0 win against Chile) and September 7 (3-0 win against Thailand) and three games in the final round on 14th (4: 3 on penalties against Mali), 18th (0: 4 defeat against Brazil) and 21 September (1: 2 defeat against Spain) and took fourth place in the tournament. In 1998 he reached the final of the U-18 European Championship with the U-18 national team , which was only lost to Ireland 3: 4 on penalties. For the U-21 national team he played three times, where he was used for the first time on March 26, 1999 in Belfast in the 0-1 defeat against Northern Ireland . He made his senior national team debut on February 23, 2000 in Amsterdam when he lost 2-1 in the test international against the Netherlands , when he came on for Zoltan Sebescen in the 46th minute . At the World Cup in 2002 , he was missing through injury, as well as in the World Cup in 2006 on home soil. He played his last game in the national jersey on March 1, 2006 in Florence in a 4-1 defeat in the international test match against Italy .

After the active time

After the end of his career, Deisler had largely withdrawn from the public. It was not until the end of September 2007, around eight months after his resignation, that he spoke for the first time in an interview about the reasons for this step. On October 8, 2009, the biography “Sebastian Deisler.”, Written by sports journalist Michael Rosentritt ( Der Tagesspiegel ) in collaboration with Deisler, was published. Back to life".

Private

Deisler, who has a son (* 2004) with his former Brazilian partner, wanted to work as a physiotherapist after his footballing career. Nothing is known about his professional situation. Deisler lives secluded in Freiburg. He reached the media again in 2013 with a lost claim for damages before the Berlin Regional Court against a former advisor.
