Schulze grew up in the small community of Darlingerode near Wernigerode , and SG Darlingerode was his first sports club in 1954. At the age of 13, he went to BSG Lok Halberstadt in 1960 , which in 1964 delegated him to the league club SC Leipzig as a junior player . There he became a ten-time junior national player. In 1966/67 he played his first season in the men's team in Leipzig, which had since been converted to 1. FC Lokomotive Leipzig . After 14 league appearances, Schulze moved to 1. FC Magdeburg at the beginning of the 1968/69 season . There he replaced Hans-Georg Moldenhauer in the following years and finally ousted him from the 1971/72 season. In Magdeburg Schulze was three times GDR soccer champion, won the GDR soccer cup in 1973 and was on May 8, 1974 in the Magdeburg team that won the European Cup Winners' Cup . On October 12, 1974, he was used in the senior national team in the European Championship qualifier against Iceland (1: 1 in Magdeburg). He earned this commitment as the second man behind Jürgen Croy through excellent performances in the weeks before. Since Hans-Ulrich Grapenthin later took this position , Schulze was not called back to the national team. After 138 league games for 1. FC Magdeburg and a total of 152 first division appearances, Schulze moved to the second division Stahl Blankenburg in 1977 at the age of 30 . There he ended his active career in 1982.

Schulze then worked as a football coach, initially with his previous Blankenburg team until 1985 and then for three years with Stahl Thale , whose team he helped to advance to the second-rate GDR league in 1987 . From July 1988 to December 1989 Schulze trained a league team with the BSG Wismut Aue . After German reunification he was a trainer at SD Croatia Berlin , Lok Stendal and TSG Neustrelitz . In 2006 he went abroad and took over the Albanian club KS Vllaznia Shkodra . He also coached the A-youth of 1. FC Neubrandenburg 04 , who play in the Regionalliga Nordost. He coached the SV Waren 09 association league team until 2012, and is now retired.
