Thomas Wolter (born 4 October 1963) is a German former professional footballer who played as a midfielder or a defender, and the current manager of SV Werder Bremen's youth academy.
Due to injury, Wolter was only able to appear in 16 matches in the 1987–88 campaign as the Hanseatic League team won the second national championship in its history, the first in 23 years.
[1] He retired in June 1998 at almost 35 years of age, with nearly 400 official games – 312 in the (West) German top-flight[2] - to his credit.
In the molds of another Werder legend, Thomas Schaaf, Wolter continued his career at the club as a manager, starting in the reserve team.
Wolter gained one cap for Germany,[4] playing 60 minutes in a 3–1 friendly loss with Brazil in Porto Alegre, on 16 December 1992.
