Peter Weis is a bilingual German-American football journalist specializing in English-language coverage of the Bundesliga. Over the past seven consecutive seasons, he has published more than 8,000 articles covering Germany’s top flight, including breaking news, transfer reporting, tactical analysis, post-match reaction, player scouting, and long-form features.
Working directly from German-language press conferences, interviews, official club communications, and other primary sources, Peter translates German football for international audiences through accurate, contextual journalism delivered at the pace of a modern digital newsroom. His reporting combines the speed of deadline journalism with the depth of feature writing, providing readers with insight into both the sporting and cultural dimensions of the Bundesliga.
Peter has worked as a full-time Bundesliga journalist for Get German Football News and Bulinews.com while also contributing to The Runner Sports and appearing regularly as a panelist and vlogger on The Bundesliga Show. Throughout his career, his reporting has covered every Bundesliga club, Germany’s men’s and women’s national teams, the Germany U21s, and major international tournaments involving Bundesliga players.
A native speaker of both German and English, Peter specializes in interpreting live German press conferences, interviews, and primary-source reporting into timely English-language journalism. His work is particularly recognized for immediate post-match reaction, tactical analysis, and comprehensive coverage of German football beyond the ninety minutes.
Born in Kaiserslautern and educated in the United States, Peter combines an international perspective with lifelong familiarity with German football. He regularly travels throughout Germany to report on matches, supporter culture, and the traditions that distinguish the Bundesliga from leagues around the world.
Whether covering a Bundesliga title race, a relegation battle, or the atmosphere created by Germany’s supporters, Peter’s goal remains the same: to make German football more accessible, better understood, and more deeply appreciated by English-speaking audiences.
