Lukas Rupp (born 8 January 1991) is a German professional footballer who plays for TSG Hoffenheim as a midfielder.
Rupp has played for Karlsruher SC, Borussia Mönchengladbach, SC Paderborn 07 and VfB Stuttgart, before joining current club Hoffenheim.
Rupp's father Franz Rupp was a professional Handball player in Leutershausen. Rupp's professional career as a footballer began with Karlsruher SC. In June 2011, alongside teammate Matthias Zimmermann, Rupp was signed by Borussia Mönchengladbach. Upon his signing, sporting director Max Eberl praised his versatility. Despite managing an assist in a DFB-Pokal match against SSV Jahn Regensburg, 21 year old Rupp was unable to secure first team football in his debut season at the Borussia-Park, playing just three times, before being loaned to SC Paderborn.
At the end of the 2013/14 season, Rupp was informed that his contract was not to be renewed. Rupp then joined SC Paderborn, for whom he had previously played for on loan. He signed a two-year deal with Paderborn, who had just been promoted for the first time in their history under coach André Breitenreiter. Rupp's new side began the season well, topping the table after four rounds, and Rupp was personally successful in taking a first team spot. Rupp came off the bench to score twice in a crucial relegation battle against SC Freiburg, as Paderborn came back to win 2-1, their third away win of the campaign. However, at the end of the season, the team was relegated alongside Freiburg, having finished in last place.
