Club career

Born in Ulm, West Germany, Hoeneß played from age six to fourteen as a goalkeeper on amateur level for VfB Ulm, which was co-founded by his father, the master butcher Erwin Hoeneß on 13 November 1949. The team won the 1960/61 season – together with his brother Uli – the 1st districts championship in the D–Youth.[1] From 1967 to 1973 Hoeneß played for TSG Ulm 1846. In 1973, at the age of 20, he moved to VfR Aalen in the first amateur league (third division), before he moved to the professionals in 1975 with VfB Stuttgart, with the club then in the second division. In his first season he won the championship and with 23 goals was the second best scorer for the Aaleners behind Helmut Dietterle. Because of the league reform, in which the five-track Regionalliga was replaced by the two-track 2. Bundesliga as the second highest division, the VfR could not be promoted and also entered the third division in the following season. There Hoeneß was able to reach the championship again with the team but failed in the promotion games.[2] In 1975 the second division club VfB Stuttgart signed him, where he made his debut on 13 September 1975 (7th matchday) in the 0-2 home defeat against 1. FSV Mainz 05; he scored his first goal on 15 October (matchday11) in a 2-0 home win over SV Röchling Völklingen. After two seasons and 19 league goals, he promoted to the Bundesliga. Hoeneß made his debut there on 6 August 1977 (Day 1) in a tenses 3-3 win against his future club, FC Bayern Munich. With the interim 1-1 in the 1-2 defeat in the home game against Hamburger SV on 31 August (5th matchday), he also scored his first goal in the top division.[3]

On 28 March 1979, Hoeneß played his first international match in the jersey of the B national team, which defeated the senior national team of Norway 3-0 in Aachen, where he contributed a goal. Also in his second game in this national team, on 19 December 1979 in Genoa, he contributed with a goal in the 2-1 victory over the B selection of Italy.[9]

Hoeneß played six times for

West Germany, scoring four goals.[10] He scored on his debut with the Republic of Ireland on 22 May 1979, repeating the feat the following month, in Iceland

Hoeneß then spent seven years without a callup. However, after a solid

the final against Argentina, where he replaced Felix Magath at the hour-mark, obtaining the distinction of being the oldest player on the field, at 33 years and 173 days. He was called up by team boss Franz Beckenbauer for the game against Switzerland in Basel on 9 April 1986 and he scored the "golden" goal.[10] In the subsequent 1-1 draw with Yugoslavia on 11 May in Bochum, he failed to score in an international match for the first.[11]

Post-retirement

After retiring from active play, Hoeneß first took on a position as PR manager with computer manufacturers

European Cup. In the following years the club could no longer build on the success. In the spring of. 1995, the sporting management in the form of Hoeneß was also accused of not fitting his Anglo-Saxon vocabulary such as "event", "marketing" and "merchandising" to Swabian down-to-earthness and he came to work late in the morning. Hoeneß' successor became his predecessor, the managing director Ulrich Schäfer, who was in office between 1976. And 1990, took over the operational skills of association again.[16]

In November 1995, Michael A. Roth, the president of 1. FC Nürnberg, campaigned massively for Hoeneß' commitment but was unable to assert him in the club, in order for Hoeneß to accept the offer to take over post of general manager of a TV company.[17] In April 1997, Hoeneß ended his commitment to the TV company and Hoeneß became vice-president of another Bundesliga outfit, Hertha BSC after acting as substitute for the dismissed Carl-Heinz Rühl since March. After the club's promotion to the Bundesliga in the summer of that year, the team subsequently established itself in the top flight and qualified seven times in twelve seasons under Hoeneß' leadership to take part in an international cup. The team was in the top 6 in the league eight times during this period. Shortly after, he switched to commercial/general manager, and was released on 7 June 2009.[18] He was released on 7 June 2009 at his own request, one year before the end of his contract, after disagreements over his management style.[19]

On 21 December 2009, Hoeneß was announced as new general manager at VfL Wolfsburg, taking office on 15 January 2010. After Felix Magath's return to the club, his contract was cancelled on 17 March 2011.[20]
