Marco Haber (born 21 September 1971 in Grünstadt) is a retired German footballer who played mainly as a central midfielder.[1]
Football career
Haber joined 1. FC Kaiserslautern at age 18, and made his first division debut shortly after, on 14 October 1989, playing the entire 1–1 draw at Bayer 04 Leverkusen. In the following season, he became an automatic first-choice, leading the side to the national championship, adding the runner-up position in 1993–94.
In 1995, Haber moved to VfB Stuttgart, where he was regularly used during three seasons, also helping win the 1997 domestic cup. In August and December of the year he joined, he was called for the national team for two friendlies against Belgium (2–1) and South Africa (0–0). In his last season, he played in eight matches (seven complete) as Stuttgart lost the Cup Winners' Cup to Chelsea FC.
After an unassuming spell in Spain's second division with UD Las Palmas, Haber returned to his country and signed for SpVgg Unterhaching, being a regular fixture in his first two years. 2001–02 was split between Unterhaching and FC Hansa Rostock, appearing very rarely in his six-month spell, as relegation was narrowly avoided.
Subsequently, Haber would spend five years in the Cypriot league, first in Omonia Nicosia, winning one championship and one Supercup, then Anorthosis Famagusta FC (league champion in 2004–05) and Nea Salamis FC. In summer 2007, he moved back to Germany, playing one season in the Regionalliga Süd (third level) with FSV Oggersheim.
On the 16th of March 2014 Marco agreed to move to Omonia AC Nicosia for the position of General Manager. The agreement will be announced after Omonia's game against Apoel Nicosia.
