Marco Kurz (born 16 May 1969) is a retired German footballer who currently manages A-League side Melbourne Victory.
Kurz, who played as a defender, started playing his first football at SV Sillenbuch, a small club in his native Stuttgart, and then for VfL Sindelfingen. At age 20, he had his breakthrough into professional football, when he signed a contract for his local Bundesliga side VfB Stuttgart in the summer of 1989. After one year, where he – with the exception of one cap – only played for VfB's second team, he was transferred to Franconian side 1. FC Nürnberg, in 1990; there he was more successful, earning 108 caps in four seasons. When the Club was relegated to the 2. Bundesliga after the 1993–94 season, Kurz took up an offer by Westphalian club Borussia Dortmund. The BVB won the title of German champion in the following season, with Kurz playing four times. At BVB rivals Schalke 04, where he subsequently played from 1995 to 1998, he earned 58 caps.
