Andreas Menger (born 11 September 1972 in West Berlin) is a former German football player and currently goalkeeping coach of VfB Stuttgart.
The netminder played in German professional football between 1997 until 2005.[1] But merely in his first season at the Cologne side he assured a regular spot. After the Billy Goats relegated, he had only eight appearances. In winter of the 1998–99 season, he was transferred to MSV Duisburg. While playing twelve times with the Zebras, he never played in one game when he was under contract for Frankfurt. Nevertheless, the executives were convinced of his abilities and from 2005 to 2011 he was the goalkeeping coach of the eagles, after splitting his duties between being a stand-by goalkeeper and coaching the keepers.
In July 2011, Menger became new goalkeeping coach of VfB Stuttgart.[2] On 8 January 2013, Menger extended his contract with VfB Stuttgart until June 2016.[3]
