Andreas Thom joined the youth department of BFC Dynamo in 1974 and enrolled in the elite Children and Youth Sports school (KJS) "Werner Seelenbinder" in Alt-Hohenschönhausen in Berlin.

1980

He played 51 times for East Germany throughout the 1980s and played ten times for the unified Germany national team in the early 1990s.

He is now retired from playing and works as a youth coach at Hertha BSC.

Andreas Thom was born in Rüdersdorf in East Germany and began playing football at an early age for TSG Herzfelde.

1983

Andreas Thom made his professional debut for BFC Dynamo in the DDR-Oberliga as a substitute for Bernd Schulz in the match against FC Carl Zeiss Jena on 22 October 1983.

He then made his international debut for BFC Dynamo against FK Partizan Belgrade in the 1983-84 European Cup on 2 November 1983.

1984

During his time at BFC Dynamo, he won the DDR-Oberliga in 1984, 1985, 1986, 1987 and 1988, and the FDGB-Pokal in 1988 and 1989.

East Germany, however, failed to qualify for the World Cup, finishing third in Group 4 behind France and Bulgaria.

Thom was the top scorer in the 1987-88 DDR-Oberliga.

He became the player of the week six times during the league season.

He scored five goals over the campaign, including a hat-trick in a 6–0 away win over Iceland in June 1987.
