'''Carsten Jancker''' (born 28 August 1974) is a German [[Association football|football]] coach and former player. He played as a [[Forward (association football)#Striker|striker]] for various teams between 1993 and 2009, including [[FC Köln]], [[Rapid Wien]], [[FC Bayern Munich]], [[Udinese Calcio]], [[FC Kaiserslautern]], [[Shanghai Shenhua F.C.]], and [[SV Mattersburg]], as well as the Germany national team.

== Club career ==
[[File:Carsten-Jancker-17072005.JPG|thumb|left|Jancker with [[1. FC Kaiserslautern]], 2005]]

Born in [[Grevesmühlen]], Jancker started his career as a trainee at [[F.C. Hansa Rostock|Hansa Rostock]] before making his [[Bundesliga]] debut in 1993 with [[1. FC Köln]]. At the age of 21, he was transferred to [[SK Rapid Wien|Rapid Vienna]], scoring fourteen goals including seven in the [[UEFA Cup Winners' Cup]] to finish as the tournament's top scorer. Thanks to this impressive performance, Jancker spent only one season with the Austrian club before being brought back to Germany to play for [[FC Bayern Munich]].<ref name="gatto di marmo"/><ref name="tank"/>

Jancker's time at Bayern between 1996 and 2002 was the best period of his career, a spell which included four [[Bundesliga]] titles and victory in the 2001 [[UEFA Champions League]]. At Bayern, Jancker was partnered with the [[Brazil national football team|Brazilian]] inside-forward [[Giovane Élber]], often rated as one of the Bundesliga's best attacking players.<ref name="gatto di marmo"/><ref name="tank"/>

Jancker left Bayern for Italian side [[Udinese Calcio|Udinese]] in 2002, but the move was not a success;<ref name="tank">{{cite web |url= https://www.theguardian.com/football/2004/jan/18/sport.comment3 |title= Tank Jancker eyes England before career goes off track |work= The Guardian |author= Tim Collings |date= 18 January 2004 |access-date=16 January 2018}}</ref> over two seasons and 35 games, the forward registered only two goals. Jancker was said to be "too slow and predictable for Serie A" by one football website.<ref name="gatto di marmo"/> In 2004, Jancker returned to Germany with [[1. FC Kaiserslautern|Kaiserslautern]] and showed a slight improvement in form, netting five times in 25 games.<ref>{{Cite web | url = https://www.rsssf.org/players/janckerdata.html | title = Carsten Jancker - Matches and Goals in Bundesliga | first = Matthias | last = Arnhold | date = 23 September 2015 | access-date = 9 October 2015 | publisher = Rec.Sport.Soccer Statistics Foundation}}</ref> In 2004, he also scored [[List of goalscorers with six or more goals in an association football game|six goals]] in Kaiserslautern's 15–0 first round [[DFB-Pokal]] win against [[FC Schönberg 95]], still a record for any player in the competition. This was an improvement over his own previous joint record of five, which he had scored for Bayern Munich against [[DJK Waldberg]] in the latter's 16–1 first round cup defeat in 1997.<ref>{{cite web | url = http://www.weltfussball.de/statistik/dfb-pokal/5/ | title = Die meisten Tore eines Spielers pro Spiel | language = de | publisher = weltfussball.de |trans-title=The most goals by a player in a DFB-Pokal | access-date = 19 August 2012}}</ref> Following the relegation of Kaiserslautern in May 2006, Jancker signed for Chinese team [[Shanghai Greenland Shenhua F.C.|Shanghai Shenhua]].

After poor performances, he was dropped in October, and agreed to join [[SV Mattersburg]] in the winter transfer window.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.uefa.com/memberassociations/news/newsid=478932.html |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20111005182925/http://www1.uefa.com/memberassociations/news/newsid=478932.html |url-status=dead |archive-date=5 October 2011 |title=Jancker agrees Mattersburg deal |work=[[UEFA]] |date=15 November 2006 |access-date=1 May 2008 }}</ref> In June 2009 it was announced that Mattersburg did not want to work with Jancker any further because of his physical condition. In February 2010, he announced his retirement at the end of the current season.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://diepresse.com/home/sport/fussball/539896/index.do?_vl_backlink=/home/sport/index.do|title=Fußball: Carsten Jancker beendet Karriere|work=[[Die Presse]]|date=15 February 2010|access-date=16 February 2010|language=de}}</ref>

== International career ==
[[File:Carsten Jancker.jpg|thumb|upright=1.2|Jancker with the Germany national team in 2000]]
His performances alongside Elber caught the eye of Germany national coach [[Erich Ribbeck]], who included Jancker in his international squad for [[UEFA Euro 2000|Euro 2000]].

Instantly recognisable to European football fans, the invariably shaven-headed forward has generally failed to replicate his club form when playing for the national side. A possible explanation for his poorly-regarded international performances might be that the Germany national team lacked a skilful strike partner in the Élber mould. Whatever the reason, Jancker never impressed for Germany; although he was included in [[Rudi Völler]]'s squad for the [[2002 FIFA World Cup]] – scoring a goal in the team's opening 8–0 win over [[Saudi Arabia national football team|Saudi Arabia]],<ref name="gatto di marmo"/> he was dropped from the team shortly after the tournament and was never recalled. His German international scoring record stands at roughly a goal every three games. He is known for scoring in Germany's [[Germany 1–5 England (2001)|5–1 defeat to England in 2001]].<ref>{{Cite web | url = https://www.rsssf.org/miscellaneous/jancker-intlg.html | title = Carsten Jancker - Goals in International Matches | first = Matthias | last = Arnhold | date = 23 September 2015 | access-date = 9 October 2015 | publisher = Rec.Sport.Soccer Statistics Foundation}}</ref>

== Coaching career ==
On 18 February 2010, the former international striker took over the U14 team of [[SC Neusiedl 1919|SC Neusiedl]]. Additionally he works for the first team in the [[Austrian Regional League East]] as an individual coach.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://burgenland.orf.at/stories/423844/|title=Jancker engagiert sich beim SC Neusiedl|work=[[Österreichischer Rundfunk|ORF]]|date=18 February 2010|access-date=18 February 2010|language=de|archive-date=6 July 2011|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110706093751/http://burgenland.orf.at/stories/423844/|url-status=dead}}</ref> On 27 April 2010, Jancker announced that he will work as the new coach of the Under 15 of his former club [[SK Rapid Wien]], starting 1 July 2010. In April 2013, he became assistant coach of the club's [[Austrian Bundesliga]] team.

Jancker became the head coach of [[SV Horn]] in June 2017.<ref>{{cite web | url = http://www.tt.com/sport/fussball/13049251-91/carsten-jancker-neuer-trainer-bei-erste-liga-absteiger-horn.csp | title = Carsten Jancker neuer Trainer bei Erste-Liga-Absteiger Horn | language = de | website = Tiroler Tageszeitung | date = 1 June 2017 | access-date = 19 June 2017 | archive-date = 13 August 2017 | archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20170813011846/http://www.tt.com/sport/fussball/13049251-91/carsten-jancker-neuer-trainer-bei-erste-liga-absteiger-horn.csp | url-status = dead }}</ref> He was fired on 28 November 2018.<ref>[http://www.svhorn.at/verein/news/sv-horn-trennt-sich-von-trainer-carsten-jancker SV HORN trennt sich von Trainer Carsten Jancker], svhorn.at, 28 November 2018</ref>
