Comment: OK, it looks like if Rechner played on Waldhof Manheim during the years specified he would have played in the 2. Bundesliga and with Hamburger FC he would have played in the Bundesliga, both fully-professional leagues according to WP:NFOOTY. However, this needs more than one source to verify all the information mentioned here. Bkissin (talk) 21:23, 21 December 2020 (UTC)
