Werner Habiger (born November 3, 1957 in Bad Rappenau ; † March 3, 2016 ) was a German football player and coach. The defender was used in 47 games in the German Bundesliga , as a coach he was active up to the highest amateur class.

Career

Habiger started playing football at TSV Kochendorf when he was young. He then moved to the B youth team at VfB Stuttgart . After 2 years at VfB, Habiger moved to Heilbronner SV and from there to VfR Heilbronn . From VfR Habiger went back to the amateurs of VfB Stuttgart. As a 18-year-old he played in the club's first team; in the 1978/79 season he rose with the VfR as master of the association league in the Oberliga Baden-Württemberg . For the 1981/82 season he moved to VfB Stuttgart in the Bundesliga. He made his professional debut on October 17, 1981 in a 2-1 away win at MSV Duisburg . Habiger played a total of 29 Bundesliga games for VfB and scored one goal. In the summer of 1983 he moved to 1. FC Nürnberg , for which he was used another 18 times in the Bundesliga. After Habiger was relegated with the FCN at the end of the 1983/84 season from the first division, he switched to the amateur field at Offenburg FV . With the ambitious club, the strongest home team of the 1984/85 season , he finished fourth in the table in his first season after returning to the Oberliga Baden-Württemberg. As a result, the club slipped into the middle of the table, so that Anton Rudinski took over the coaching office. In the season 1986/87 the team delivered a head-to-head race with SV Sandhausen , when ultimately second in the table, the promotion games were missed. With that, however, he had qualified with the team for the amateur championship in 1987 , in which the Baden club had to admit defeat to the amateurs of Bayern Munich in the semifinals.

In the summer of 1987 Habiger accepted an offer from the former second division club VfB Eppingen , where he worked as a player-coach. With the club he rose in 1990 to the Oberliga Baden-Württemberg, where he came back to 32 league games until he was relegated. As a coach, he later looked after SV Sandhausen and TV Hardheim before he returned to Eppingen in 2007. Since the 2013/14 season, Habiger has looked after the Unterländer district league club FC Union Heilbronn .
