German attacking midfield [url="http://www.playerhistory.com/Default.aspx?page=player_details&playerID=52787"]Fritz Kress[/url] had a long spell in Switzerland, but we are missing quite alot about him.

- Where did he play before Saarbruecken? (FC Bayern Ameteure as indicated on some forums?)

- Swiss Panini indicate 19/7 for his stay (on loan I think) at Kriens in 1980-81, but the match details in the newspaper Sport (Zurich) give him only 6 goals.

- Where did he play after 1983?

- Does somebody know more about his trainer career? Which seasons was he junior coach at FC Luzern?


Thanks in advance

before 1976: ESV Freilassing, Bayern München (1975/76 Amateur, Youth?)

He came 1975 from Freilassing and sign a profi-contract with Bayern Munich.

He had no appearances in Bundesliga 1975/76 and could not play for the amateur-team.
