Shane Rufer
Template:Short description Template:Use dmy dates Template:Use New Zealand English Template:Infobox football biography Shane Arthur Rufer (born 23 March 1960) is a New Zealand footballer who played as a centre forward, midfielder and defender. He represented New Zealand on nineteen occasions between 1979 and 1985,[1] making his debut on 29 June 1979 in a 6–0 win over Fiji.[2]
The son of a Swiss father, Arthur Rufer, and a mother of Māori descent, Anne Hine Rufer (née Campbell), Shane Rufer is the elder brother of Oceania Player of the Century Wynton Rufer.[3] The two brothers joined Norwich City on trial for six months in 1981 and played in the reserves. City's hopes of signing the Kiwi duo were dashed when the Home Office refused to grant them a work permit.[4]
In 1991, Rufer undertook a trial with Gillingham, and appeared in the club's 1991–92 team photo, but did not make an appearance for the side.[5]
Rufer's son Alex is also a footballer.
