Bernd Walter Stange (born 14 March 1948 in Gnaschwitz, Doberschau-Gaußig) is a German football manager.
Stange was born in a Sorbian town of Saxony. He started playing at an early age and was called into the East German youth team. He continued to play for Chemie Gnaschwitz in the lower divisions until 1965 and later a year at Vorwärts Bautzen before joining HSD DHfK Leipzig, playing until retiring in 1970.
Stange went into coaching with Carl Zeiss Jena, winning the GDR league title twice in 1972 & 1975 and the GDR Cup in 1973 and 1974.
In 1982 he was appointed head coach of East Germany after years working as assistant coach and head coach of the Under 21s.
After a successful six-year spell with the national team, Stange returned to FC Carl Zeiss Jena, now in the unified German Bundesliga
Stange moved to coach Hertha BSC where his old ties as an informant for the East German police, the Stasi, surfaced. He was an 'Inoffizieller Mitarbeiter', which translates as 'unofficial employee'. His code name was 'IM Kurt Wegner'. His tasks included informing the Stasi about his players' views of the government and whether any of them were breaking the law by making contact with West Germans. He was sacked after these allegations surfaced.
In 1994, after losing his job at VfB Leipzig, he decided to travel abroad and in 1995 he joined FC Dnipro Dnipropetrovsk. After the 1995–96 season Stange joined CSKA Kiev.
