Lukas Frenkert (born 19 July 2000) is a German professional footballer who plays as a defender for 2. Bundesliga club Preußen Münster.
Early life
[edit]Frenkert was born in Münster, but grew up in Ochtrup.[1][2] He attended Städtischen Gymnasium Ochtrup.[3]
Career
[edit]Frenkert played as a striker for Arminia Ochtrup's academy before moving to FC Twente at under-13 level.[3] After a spell with Eintracht Rheine's academy, he moved to Preußen Münster's academy in 2014.[4] He joined Münster's first team for the 2020–21 season, and scored 3 in 25 matches in the Regionalliga West.[5] In March 2021, it was announced that Frenkert would transfer to Schalke 04 II in summer 2021 at the end of his contract with Münster.[6][7] He returned to Preußen Münster a year later, and explained to Reviersport interviewer Krystian Wozniak that he chose to leave Schalke as he was unhappy there.[2]
In August 2023, Frenkert joined 1. FC Bocholt on a season-long loan.[8] He made 29 Regionalliga West appearances for the club across the 2023–24 season.[9] Upon his return to Münster, who were now in the 2. Bundesliga, he established himself as a regular first team player in the 2024–25 season,[10] starting every league match for the club prior to the winter break and making 25 league appearances in total.[11]
Style of play
[edit]Frenkert was described as an all-rounder early in his career; he played as a striker for Arminia Ochtrup's academy but by the 2018–19 season, he was playing as a right midfielder in the Under 19 Bundesliga.[3] When he came into the first team at Preußen Münster, he was playing primarily as a right back,[7] and later became a central defender during the 2024–25 season.[10]
