Born in Bruchsal, Walter played amateur football for SG Dielheim, ASV Durlach and FC Heidelsheim, mainly as an attacking midfielder.[2][3]

Coaching career

Early career

After retiring, Walter began his coaching career with Karlsruher SC in 2006, being an assistant of Markus Kauczinski in the under-19 team. He took over the under-15s in the following year, before moving to the under-17s in 2013, and to the under-19s in 2014.

On 7 July 2015, Bayern Munich paid Karlsruhe a € 200,000 fee to sign Walter, who was named manager of their under-17 team.[4] On 17 May 2017, he was appointed manager of Bayern's reserve team.[5]

Holstein Kiel

On 24 May 2018, Walter was appointed manager of 2. Bundesliga side Holstein Kiel, replacing departed Markus Anfang.[6] His first professional match in charge occurred on 3 August, a 3–0 away win over Hamburger SV.

Walter led Holstein Kiel to a 6th-place finish in the 2018–19 2. Bundesliga, eight points shy of a play-off qualification.

Stuttgart

In June 2019, Walter became the new head coach of VfB Stuttgart also in the second division.[7] He was sacked on 23 December, despite having his team on the third position.[8]

Hamburger SV

On 25 May 2021, after more than a year without a club, Walter was named the new head coach of fellow 2. Bundesliga side Hamburger SV.[9] He lost promotion in the play-offs in his first two seasons, and was sacked in February 2024.[10]

Hull City

On 31 May 2024, Walter was appointed head coach of Championship side Hull City on a three-year deal.[11]
