Wolfgang Schüler (born February 17, 1958 in Freiburg ) is a former German soccer player .

Athletic career

In his youth, Schüler played at Eintracht Freiburg before joining SC Freiburg . With the club he won the 1st Amateur League South Baden in 1978 , in the Baden-Württemberg group of the promotion round to the 2nd Bundesliga , the team prevailed in front of SSV Ulm 1846 , SSV Reutlingen 05 , and FV 09 Weinheim and rose to the Second class on. However, Schüler decided to say goodbye and moved to Karlsruher SC within Baden . Under coach Manfred Krafft he was a regular player here, but at the end of the 1978/79 season the offensive player had only four goals this season.

Schüler returned for one season to SC Freiburg, which he had led to sixth place in the table with 14 goals this season. At the same time, the KSC was promoted through successes against Rot-Weiss Essen in the relegation to the Bundesliga . For this he entered the top division in the following two seasons, with four or five goals this season he was again only in the shadow of Stephan Groß , Emanuel Günther and Gerhard Bold .

In the autumn of 1982 Manfred Krafft directed students to SV Darmstadt 98 , who had been relegated from the Bundesliga. In view of a precarious financial situation, the club had started with the goal of direct promotion to the second division and had strengthened this in particular with Wolfgang Trapp and Luděk Macela , but the successes failed. Therefore, the club sorted out some players and brought pupils and Rolf Dohmen from KSC on November 1, as well as Zdeněk Nehoda, a European champion from 1976 at Böllenfalltor, during the winter break . At the end of the season, the club was seventh in the table despite 21 goals this season by Bodo Mattern - Schüler had been successful eight times in 22 games - missed the promotion and the liabilities increased to over 8 million DM.

In the course of a consolidation initiated by the Darmstadt team, students returned to the KSC, which had been relegated to the second division. This time he formed a powerful storm duo with Günther. During the 1983/84 season with 30 goals this season , he was crowned the top scorer in the second division with Roland Wohlfarth from MSV Duisburg , Schüler was also one of the top ten goalscorers in the league with 19 goals this season. With 25 wins in 38 games, the team made it straight back to the top. However, Schüler accepted an offer from Borussia Dortmund , and the KSC signed Joachim Löw , who won 17 goals this season for SC Freiburg, as his successor .

Shortly after joining BVB in the summer of 1984, however, it became clear that the club had taken over financially when trying to establish itself in the top third of the league after two sixth and seventh places in previous years. The association was in debt with 8.3 million DM, the Dortmund district court appointed an emergency board in October. Although a number of local sponsors fended off a license withdrawal, the team was no longer able to match the results of previous years in terms of sport. With six and four goals this season in his two seasons at Borussia, Schüler was one of the five best internal goalscorers. In the 1985/86 season , the club was sixteenth in the relegation . After a 2-0 defeat at Fortuna Köln , Jürgen Wegmann's 3-1 goal in stoppage time saved the club in the second leg and forced a replay. While Schüler had been in the starting line-up in the two regular games, he only came on as a substitute in the 8-0 win at the Düsseldorf Rheinstadion . With Frank Mill and Norbert Dickel , the club signed two new strikers, and Schüler left the club.

With Blau-Weiß 90 Berlin , Schüler found another club in the Bundesliga. At the side of Karl-Heinz Riedle and Bodo Mattern, he was one of the most dangerous goal-scoring players of the promoted team, but the team missed relegation. In the second division he hit double digits again, but the club missed promotion as seventh in the table. So he moved back to the Bundesliga and joined the Stuttgarter Kickers . Here he had to accept relegation to the Bundesliga again. In 1990 he went to 1. FC Saarbrücken . As a storm duo with Michael Preetz , he led the club with eleven goals this season in the 1991/92 season to the championship in the southern group. In the first division, however, coach Peter Neururer no longer relied on the now 35-year-old, who was completing his coaching training at the same time. Therefore, he ended his career after the direct relegation in the summer of 1993.

After the end of his career, Schüler began working in the field of company and private pension schemes.
