Louis Oppie

Louis Oppie is a German defender, born in Berlin on 17 May 2002. He began at SV Tasmania Berlin before joining Hertha BSC’s academy in 2009, later spending a short period with Hertha Zehlendorf. In 2018, Oppie moved to Hannover 96, where he developed largely with the reserve side in the Regionalliga Nord. His 2022–23 campaign there brought 34 appearances, two goals and four assists. In July 2023, he joined Arminia Bielefeld in the 3. Liga, choosing a route that offered regular senior football. Oppie became a prominent left-sided player for Bielefeld and helped the club reach the 2024–25 DFB-Pokal final, where it lost to VfB Stuttgart. He subsequently moved to FC St. Pauli, continuing as an attack-minded left-back or wing-back whose game combines overlapping runs, crossing and committed defensive challenges.
