Antoine Hey (born 19 September 1970) is a German football coach and former professional player.

He spent most of his playing career in the top two divisions of German football,[2] and went on to manage a number of national teams.

Playing career

[edit]

Hey played mainly for Fortuna Düsseldorf and Schalke 04[3] in Germany,[4] as well as Tennis Borussia Berlin, Fortuna Köln, VfL Osnabrück, Anorthosis Famagusta and VfR Neumünster.

Managerial career

[edit]

Hey began his management career in Germany with VfR Neumünster before moving to Africa to manage Lesotho.[4] Hey was also manager of the Gambia from September 2006[4] until March 2007.[5] His spell with Gambia was marred by concerns over money.[6][7] He was appointed manager of Liberia in February 2008.[8] In February 2009, he was appointed coach of the Kenyan national team.[9][10] After disputes with the governing body over team selection,[11] Hey walked out on Kenya's national team shortly before the final World Cup qualifier against Nigeria.[12][13]

Later on, he worked as a Technical Director for the Libyan Football Federation from 2010 until 2014, and in the same role for the Bahrain Football Association from 2015 until 2016.[14] In November 2016, Hey returned to management with Sudanese club Al-Merrikh,[15] but he was sacked in January 2017 due to poor results, directly after the draw with ASAS Djibouti Télécom in the 2017 UAFA Club Championship.[16]

In February 2017 he was one of a number of managers on the shortlist for the vacant Rwanda national team manager role.[17] He was appointed manager of the Rwanda national team in March 2017.[18] He asked to quit in January 2018.[19]

In May 2018, he was appointed in a dual role as manager of Myanmar and its under-23 team on a one-and-a-half-year deal.[20] In the 2018 AFF Championship, Myanmar drew with Vietnam under controversial circumstances.[21] Hey was criticized for his aggressive behaviour in this match towards the Vietnamese players and their manager Park Hang-seo.[22][23] He was sacked in December 2018.[24] He returned to Myanmar in October 2019.[25]

Personal life

[edit]

His father, Jonny Hey, was also a professional footballer, playing for MSV Duisburg, Arminia Bielefeld, Grasshoppers Zürich and Fortuna Köln between 1972 and 1980.[26]
