Andreas Ibertsberger (born 27 July 1982) is an Austrian former professional footballer who played as a left-back. He was a member of the Austria national team. Ibertsberger is a younger brother of former national team player Robert Ibertsberger whose career was cut short by injury.

Club career[edit]

Ibertsberger played for SC Freiburg, for whom he signed from Austria Salzburg in January 2005.[1] In January 2008, he moved to 1899 Hoffenheim, with whom he originally signed a pre-contract agreement for the 2008–09 season.[2] With smalltown club Hoffenheim he won promotion to the German Bundesliga.

On 15 May 2012, Ibertsberger's contract with Hoffenheim expired, after missing the vast majority of the 2011–12 season with a chronic back problem.[3]

International career[edit]

Ibertsberger made his debut for Austria in an October 2004 World Cup qualification match against Northern Ireland. He earned 14 caps, scoring one goal.

Coaching career[edit]

Ahead of the 2014–15 season, Ibertsberger became the new assistant coach at TSG 1899 Hoffenheim's second team.[4]

Ibertsberger was at Kiel until summer 2019, where he, ahead of the 2019–20 season, became U19 coach at Eintracht Frankfurt.[5] They finished the season on a sixth place in the A-Junior Bundesliga South/Southwest. Ahead of the upcoming 2020–21 season, he instead became assistant coach of the same team under Jürgen Kramny.[6] The duo left Eintracht at the end of the 2021/22 season.[7]
