Wolfgang Paul (German pronunciation: [ˈvɔlfɡaŋ ˈpaʊ̯l] (audio speaker iconlisten); born 25 January 1940 in Olsberg, Province of Westphalia) is a German former football player.[1]

Captaining Borussia Dortmund to the European Cup Winners Cup in 1966, Paul got included in Helmut Schön's West German national football team for the 1966 FIFA World Cup.[2] Despite this, the defender never played a match for West Germany and had to retire early because Wolfgang picked up an injury in the late 1960s.
