Horst Wohlers (born 6 August 1949) is a German former football player and manager, who played as a defender or midfielder.
After his playing career ended, he became a coach for Bayer 05 Uerdingen in 1989 assisted by his former colleague Rainer Bonhof.
The Danish football association DBU contacted Horst Wohlers in 1990, because he was pointed out as the ideal replacement for another German, Sepp Piontek, by his former teammate Allan Simonsen.
This led to a public farce in Denmark, because Wohlers was never allowed to break his contract at Bayer 05 Uerdingen.
In the 2004–05 season, he became the coach of Borussia Mönchengladbach II (or U23), which he led to the German third tier (Regionalliga Nord).
