Club career

Early career

Frank Rohde learned to play football at SG Dynamo Rostock-Mitte, like his three older brothers Peter, Rainer and Jürgen. His father, Egon Rodhe, was a youth trainer at SG Dynamo Rostock-Mitte. [2] It was primarily his father who taught him the basics of football and took him to training early on. [3]

Frank Rohde joined the youth department of BFC Dynamo in 1969, just as his three older brothers had done before him. [3] He then also followed his three older brothers to the elite Children and Youth Sports School (KJS) "Werner Seelenbinder" in Alt-Hohenschönhausen. At the time, all four brothers played for BFC Dynamo. Also their father, Egon Rohde, was delegated to BFC Dynamo in 1969. Egon Rohde became the head of the youth department and expanded the youth department of BFC Dynamo into a talent factory. [2]

Senior career

Frank Rohde made his professional debut for BFC Dynamo in the 1979–80 season. He won nine East German league and two East Germany cups titles with BFC Dynamo. He was transferred to Hamburger SV together with Thomas Doll in 1990. Rohde played a total of 303 top-flight matches in East Germany and reunified Germany. [4] He later joined Hertha BSC in 1993. Hertha BSC played in the 2. Bundesliga at the time.

Rohde has acknowledged that he learned a lot at Hamburger SV and Hertha BSC, but claims that his years at BFC Dynamo were his best. [5] The sweeper won 42 caps for East Germany in the 1980s. [6] Rohde cites Reinhard Lauck as a role model for him at BFC Dynamo. [7]

Miscellaneous

Rohde lives in Eisenhüttenstadt and works as a teacher as of 2020. [8]
