Career

Frey began his professional career with Bayern Munich, making his debut against VfB Leipzig in the 1993–94 season. He never established himself as a first-team regular, however, and left in 1996 to join SC Freiburg. After one year at Freiburg he moved to Werder Bremen, but injuries restricted him to just 30 appearances in four seasons. In 2001, he returned south, joining 1. FC Nürnberg, where he briefly served as captain, but his injury troubles returned, and he retired in 2004 after the club's relegation to the 2. Bundesliga.

Personal life

After his retirement from playing Frey studied at university and became a mathematics teacher.^[2]
