Karl-Heinz Feldkamp (born 2 June 1934) is a German retiredfootball manager and player.[2]
Feldkamp started coaching in 1968. In Germany, he coachedBorussia Dortmund,1. FC Kaiserslautern, andEintracht Frankfurt, among others. He previously coachedGalatasaray in 1992–93, and also coached anotherIstanbul club,Beşiktaş in 1999. During his 1992–93 tenure at the Istanbul club, Feldkamp helped Galatasaray establish a competitive squad with promising Turkish youngsters. These would-be stars included, but are not limited to:Hakan Şükür,Bülent Korkmaz,Hamza Hamzaoğlu,Tugay Kerimoğlu, andMustafa Kocabey.
While manager of Kaiserslautern he won the1989–90 DFB-Pokal, followed by the1990–91 Bundesliga and the1991 DFB-Supercup.[3] He also won theDFB-Pokal in1985 withBayer Uerdingen and in1988 withEintracht Frankfurt.[4] While managing in Turkey he guided Galatasaray to the1992–93 1.Lig title and the 1992–93Turkish Cup.
He is commonly referred to as "Kalli". Due to his direct and honest interaction with the Turkish media, Turkish newspapers often write about the "Kalli aphorisms."
In June 2007, he returned to Galatasaray by signing a two-year contract and replacing outgoing coachErik Gerets. He was respected and elevated to the level of almost a "living legend" by Galatasaray supporters. He was known for his rigid "discipline" on and off the training pitch and did not differentiate between "star" and "team" players.
On 5 April 2008, Feldkamp resigned from Galatasaray due to a huge amount of disagreements between himself and the board. Galatasaray President Adnan Polat previously stated that, Feldkamp would not be Galatasaray coach for the 2008–09 season but was responsible for the reserve team and an advisor to the new coach. It was rumoured that his previous occasions withLincoln andHakan Şükür just before the derby game againstBeşiktaş J.K., and recent modifications in the squad led to the resignation.[citation needed]
On 26 November 2008, Feldkamp officially returned to Galatasaray as the team consultant in order to assist the team managerMichael Skibbe.[5]
