Heinz Hermann (born 28 March 1958) is a Swiss former professional footballer who played as a midfielder.

With 118 international caps[1] (and 15 goals) between 1978 and 1991 for the Switzerland national team, Hermann is the nation's fourth-highest appearance maker, behind Granit Xhaka, Xherdan Shaqiri and Ricardo Rodriguez.

Club

Hermann was born in Zürich. On 1 July 1977, he moved from FC Seefeld Zürich to Grasshopper Club Zürich, where he became Swiss league champion four times and cup champion once. At the end of the 1984–85 season, he changed to Neuchâtel Xamax. He later played for Servette FC and FC Aarau. From 1984 to 1988 he was awarded Player of the Year five consecutive seasons.

Hermann's first international match came in September 1978 with the 2–0 victory against the USA. In November 1991 he ended his international match career after a 1–0 loss to Romania.

His clubs as a coach include SR Delémont (manager), FC Vaduz in Liechtenstein, SV Waldhof Mannheim (assistant coach) and FC Basel, where he had filled a number of roles. In July 2012 he became new sports director of FC Luzern, but he was sacked on 6 February 2013.[2]
