Club career

In his youth, Skibbe played for SG Wattenscheid 09. Then he switched to the professional team of FC Schalke 04. From 1985 to 1986, he appeared in 14 Bundesliga games, but then he tore his cruciate ligament three times, which forced him to end his playing career.

Managerial career

At the age of 22, he started his career as coach with Schalke 04 youth team.

German national team

He gave up this post after being offered the position as director of the German national team. In 2000, he became its head coach. Rudi Völler, however, made most of the decisions, but didn't have a coaching license and thus couldn't be the official head coach. After Germany was eliminated in the first round of UEFA Euro 2004, Völler and Skibbe resigned from their positions. Skibbe was director of the youth system of the German Football Association from 24 August 2004 to 8 October 2005.
