Career

Winfried Richter made his debut in the first year after the Fritz Walter era , 1959/60, in the first division squad of 1. FC Kaiserslautern. At the FCK, under the old Walter companion Richard Schneider , the focus was on rejuvenating from their own ranks. In addition to judges, Jürgen Neumann , Dieter Pulter , Wolfgang Schnarr and Dieter Schönborn were also accepted into the top division squad. The fast attacker ran immediately on the first round match day, August 16, 1959, in an away game against Eintracht Kreuznach. The 18-year-old experienced a 1-0 defeat with his teammates at the blue-whites from Nahe Valley and made the experience that the transition from youth to senior level is associated with adjustment problems. At the end of the round, FCK finished 5th and the young attacker had scored nine goals in 22 league appearances. He soon became a goalscorer for the “Red Devils”. The first national success came in the DFB Cup in 1961, when Richter moved into the DFB Cup final against Werder Bremen on September 13th in Gelsenkirchen with the “Red Devils” . The last remaining 1954 world champion Werner Liebrich , together with goalkeeper Schnarr, Gerd Schneider , Pulter, Manfred Feldmüller and Richter, could not prevent Bremen from winning 2-0.

Richter celebrated his greatest success with winning the championship in the 1962/63 season in the Oberliga Südwest, his 27 goals, the associated participation in the final round of the 1963 German championship and his inclusion in the new Bundesliga for the 1963 season / 64. In 1963, he finished second in the list of goalscorers in the southwest, behind Dieter Krafczyk from 1. FC Saarbrücken (29 goals), ahead of the veteran Friedel Trapp (VfR Frankenthal) with 24 goals. Until the founding of the Bundesliga , he played 106 league games with 57 goals. Then he was active for two years, until 1965, as a Bundesliga player for the FCK, whereby the team mostly found themselves in the lower table area and judges also achieved fewer goals than in the upper league times. Richter belongs to the circle of players who brought the new concentration of performance in the DFB area to run on August 24, 1963. Lautern achieved a 1-1 away draw at Eintracht Frankfurt with center forward Richter and the new star Jacobus Prins on the debut day of the Bundesliga. On the third match day, September 7th, he was able to distinguish himself for the first time as a Bundesliga scorer in a 2-2 away draw at Hertha BSC.

In 1965 he went to 1. FC Saarbrücken in the second-class Regionalliga Südwest . With Manfred Berz , Emil Poklitar , Karl-Heinz Vogt and others, he provided the goals, the two-time runner-up and reaching the promotion round to the Bundesliga in 1966 and 1967 Competitive game goals for FCS, farewell to Saarbrücken and moved to Switzerland for FC Luzern . With the team from the Allmend stadium , he reached sixth place under coach Ernst Wechselberger 1967/68, but rose in the second year, 1968/69, in the second division.

In 1969 he returned to 1. FC Kaiserslautern in the Bundesliga, which ended after two years and only 16 games (two goals). On the 16th matchday of the 1970/71 round, he suffered a fracture of the tibia and fibula on November 28, 1970 in an away game against MSV Duisburg in a press blow with Vorstopper Detlef Pirsig and ended his professional career at the end of the round.
