Thomas Jens Uwe Doll (born 9 April 1966) is a German professional

Bari
.

Club career

Doll began playing football for the youth teams of local side BSG Lokomotiv Malchin. He was allowed to join the youth academy of

1983-84 DDR-Oberliga
on 27 August 1983.

F.C. Hansa Rostock was relegated to the second tier DDR-Liga after the

SG Dynamo Dresden, but wanted to go to Berlin to be able to stay close to his family and because he already knew players in BFC Dynamo from the national youth teams, such as Andreas Thom.[2]

Doll immediately became a regular player in the first team of BFC Dynamo. He scored his first goal for BFC Dynamo in the DDR-Oberliga in the

1989 with BFC Dynamo. BFC Dynamo then met SG Dynamo Dresden in the first ever DFV-Supercup
on 5 August 1989. BFC Dynamo won the match 4-1 and became the first and only winner of the DFV-Supercup in the history of East German football. Doll scored two goals in the match.

After

Bari
, he returned to Hamburger SV in 1998. He played another three seasons, but injuries continued to take their toll.

International career

At international level, Doll represented both East Germany (29 caps, seven goals) and the unified Germany (18 caps, 1 goal).[6] His last international appearance came in 1993. He was part of Germany's squad for Euro 1992 where the side finished as runners-up to Denmark.

Coaching career

Hamburger SV

Following his retirement, he became part of Hamburg's coaching staff, managing the reserves from 2002 until being appointed first-team manager in 2004.

Early in his tenure as coach with Hamburg, he enjoyed some success, saving the team from relegation in his first season, winning the Intertoto Cup, and then guiding the club to a much-improved third-place result in the 2005–06 season to earn a Champions League berth. The 2006–07 season, however, was less successful for the coach. The team delivered a disappointing performance in the Champions League that saw only one win in six first-round games, and then plunged to the bottom of the Bundesliga table by mid-season. Doll was sacked on 1 February 2007.

Borussia Dortmund

On 19 May 2008, Doll resigned as the coach of Borussia Dortmund after the team finished a disappointing 13th in the Bundesliga.[7][8]

Gençlerbirliği

He agreed to manage Gençlerbirliği S.K. and signed a two-year contract.[9]

Al-Hilal

On 20 July 2011, he was appointed as head coach of Saudi Arabian champion team,

Al-Hilal
but was sacked on 22 January 2012.

Ferencváros

Doll in 2016

He became head coach of Hungarian club

Groupama Arena in the 2014–15 Magyar Kupa Final.[11]

Doll's Ferencváros secured the club's 29th Nemzeti Bajnokság I title on 2 April 2016 after a defeat at the Nagyerdei Stadion against Debreceni VSC. By winning the 2015–16 Nemzeti Bajnokság I season, Doll managed to win all the possible titles in football in Hungary.[12] In recognition of his record performance with Ferencváros, Doll received the "Coach of the year in NB I" award from the Hungarian Football Federation in 2016.[13]

Ferencváros were eliminated in the second round of the

2017 Magyar Kupa Final against Vasas SC
.

The 2017–18 Nemzeti Bajnokság I season started with moderate success, but aspirations in international cups were once again thwarted when Ferencváros lost to FC Midtjylland in the second round of the 2017–18 UEFA Europa League.

Hannover 96

On 27 January 2019, Bundesliga club Hannover 96 announced Doll as the new manager of the club, replacing the sacked André Breitenreiter.[14] He left the club as Mirko Slomka was confirmed as the club's new manager on 28 May 2019.[15]

APOEL FC

On 15 August 2019, Doll became manager of APOEL.[16]

Having managed to guide APOEL to the round of 32 of the 2019–20 UEFA Europa League, on 9 December 2019, Doll got relieved of his duties as the club's manager by mutual consent.[17]

Persija Jakarta

On 23 April 2022, Liga 1 club Persija Jakarta announced Doll as the new manager of the club in a three-year deal.[18][19] In his first season, he finished in second place.

Personal life

Doll has two daughters, one with his Italian-born wife Roberta, the other with a former wife now married to another ex-footballer, Olaf Bodden. He lives in Budapest.[20]

Controversy

In late January 2023, tension arose between Doll and Shin Tae-yong, the Indonesia national football team head coach. Doll declined nine players' invitations to attend the national team training camp.[21] Additionally, Doll criticized Shin during a press conference, likening him to a clown for his involvement in television advertisements.[22]
