Marcel Rapp (born 16 April 1979) is a German former professional footballer who played as a centre-back or as a midfielder and who is the head coach of 2. Bundesliga club Holstein Kiel.[1][2]
Career[edit]
Coaching career[edit]
Rapp began his coaching career as assistant coach at FC Nöttingen.[3]
In January 2013, Rapp became assistant coach of TSG 1899 Hoffenheim's U17 squad under Jens Rasiejewski. In the 2013/14 season, he took over as head coach of the U16s and coached them for two seasons. In the 2015/16 season, Rapp became head coach of the U17s.[4] In March 2017, Rapp took over the U19s from Domenico Tedesco, who moved to second-division club FC Erzgebirge Aue.[5]
On June 9, 2020, Rapp, together with former assistant coach Matthias Kaltenbach and U16 coach Kai Herdling, took over Alfred Schreuder's Bundesliga-team, which was in 7th place with 43 points after the 30th matchday of the 2019/20 season. The club described the transitional arrangement as a "team solution."[6] Although Rapp was the only person with a soccer coaching license, Kaltenbach was the official head coach.[7] The coaching trio won 3 of their last 4 matches and finished the season in 6th place, qualifying directly for the Europa League. Rapp then returned to the U19s for the 2020/21 season.
At the beginning of October 2021, Rapp took over at second-division club Holstein Kiel as the successor to interim coach Dirk Bremser, who had been in charge of the team for 2 matches following the resignation of Ole Werner. He signed a contract until June 30, 2024.[8] At the time of his takeover, Holstein Kiel were in 15th place with 8 points after 2 wins, 2 draws and 5 defeats on matchday 9 of the 2021/22 season. At the end of the season, they finished ninth in the table, followed by eighth place at the end of the following season.
In October 2023, Rapp extended his contract with Holstein Kiel until June 2026.[9]
