Career

edit

Schenk was signed by Dundee in October 2014, to provide goalkeeping cover after Kyle Letheren was injured.[1] He made his first and only appearance for Dundee in a Dundee derby on 1 January 2015, but experienced a "nightmare debut" as Dundee lost 6–2 to Dundee United.[2] It was the first time that Dundee had conceded six goals in a Dundee derby match.[3] He was released by Dundee on 28 January 2015.[4] After a couple of years back in the regional leagues of Germany, Schenk retired from football in 2017.

Since 2017, Schenk has been a youth goalkeeping coach for Hamburger SV, and for the majority of that time has been the goalkeeping coach for Hamburger SV II.[5][6]
