Kevin Schumacher

Kevin Schumacher's career has been a steady climb through German football's lower divisions, built on promotions rather than headline transfers. He started at SpVgg Bad Pyrmont, where he scored 26 goals in 30 appearances, a return that led to a move to 1. FC Germania Egestorf/Langreder in 2016 amid a public dispute between the two clubs over the transfer fee. He went on to score 11 goals in 65 appearances there before joining Werder Bremen II.

The defining moment of his career came on 19 June 2021, when Schumacher scored the decisive goal in the 35th minute of the second leg of the Regionalliga Nord promotion play-off against 1. FC Schweinfurt 05, sending TSV Havelse up. That goal, and Eintracht Braunschweig's reported interest in him, preceded his free transfer to Hansa Rostock less than two weeks later, where he went on to make 105 appearances over four seasons.

His trophy record reflects that pattern of arriving in time to share in promotions and cup runs: a Regionalliga Cup with Havelse, a regional cup with Hansa Rostock, and a 3. Liga title with VfL Osnabrück, the club he joined on a free transfer in 2025. His spell at Osnabrück was interrupted in August 2025 by a training injury, described as having "stepped wrong in the grass," which ruled him out of a derby against his former club Havelse.

In July 2026, Schumacher returned to Havelse on a free transfer, a move the club president described as bringing him "home."
