Player career

Wolfgang April started playing soccer in Kluczbork, Poland. In 1978 the technical mechanic switched to FKS Stal Mielec , the Polish champion from 1976. After only one season at Mielec, he moved to Gwardia Koszalin . There he played for four years before returning to Stal Mielec in 1983, who had just been relegated to the Polish second division. In 1984 April, who had completed a total of 16 missions for youth national teams of the Polish Football Association , went to Germany . The 1.77 m tall defender, who was also used in midfield, was accepted by Eintracht Frankfurt . As was customary at the time, he was initially banned for the first season after moving from Eastern to Western Europe.

He was only eligible to play in the 1985/86 season . Initially, he completed the first three games of the season from the start under the name Bogusław Kwiecień. On the sixth matchday he was allowed to play again from the start, but was substituted at half time and only returned twice as a substitute on the 12th and 14th matchday on the Bundesliga lawn.

As Wolfgang April, he moved to the 2nd Bundesliga for SpVgg Bayreuth in December 1985 . There he only moved into the tribe in the second half of the second half of the season and made twelve appearances alongside Jörg Dittwar and Armin Eck . He then returned to Eintracht in Frankfurt, but was only part of the amateur squad. During the season he went to Spain in the Primera División for the newly promoted CE Sabadell FC and came there in the season-end spurt on seven missions.

Back in Germany in April 1987, it moved to the Hessian league for SpVgg Bad Homburg . In 1989 he was in the final of the German amateur championship with SpVgg . After missing promotion to the 2nd Bundesliga, he moved to the Swiss National League B for FC Glarus , where he played for two years until 1991.
