Dirk Weetendorf

Weetendorf was born in Burg auf Fehmarn. Between 1996 and 1999 he played three seasons in the Bundesliga for Hamburger SV and Werder Bremen, but did not become a regular starter at either club. In 1999, he moved to Regionalliga Nord side Eintracht Braunschweig, where he became a prolific scorer and contributed significantly to the club's promotion to the 2. Bundesliga in 2002. However, constant injury problems forced Weetendorf to retire early from football just one year later.
