Nick Proschwitz (born 28 November 1986) is a German footballer, playing as a striker for Sint-Truidense. He began his career in Germany and Switzerland, before moving to England in 2012 where he spent the next three years.
Born in Weißenfels, Proschwitz played football as a youth for teams in Michelau, Lichtenfels and Hallstadt, before joining the youth team at Greuther Fürth. He signed a contract for the 2004–05 season with the reserve team of Hoffenheim, before spending the 2005–06 season in the reserve team of Hamburg, where he played in the Regional League. In 2007 he dropped a league to the reserve team of VfL Wolfsburg in the Oberliga where he achieved his first promotion back to the Regional League, scoring 16 goals in the process. Following his success in Wolfsburg, however, he opted to switch to league rivals Hannover 96 II, scoring 11 times in 33 games.
In 2009 he transferred to the Liechtenstein side FC Vaduz, who had been recently relegated back to the Swiss Challenge League, the second highest league in Switzerland. He made his debut on 16 July 2009, and went on to score 23 goals in 29 appearances for the club.
He remained with Vaduz for only a single season. In May 2010, he signed a three-year contract with FC Thun, who had just been promoted to the Swiss Super League, the top tier of Swiss football, the first time he had played in the highest league in a country, scoring eight goals up to April 2011. On 12 April 2011, he made it clear that he wished to leave Thun and move to FC Luzern in the summer transfer window.
