Career
editLenhart began his career as a German youth international, being part of the Germany U20 national team in the 1993 FIFA World Youth Championship, coming on as a substitute in a 2–1 defeat to Uruguay U20[1] and made ten appearances in the Belgian First Division.
Lenhart joined Leicester City in 1996 on a month-long contract after impressing Martin O'Neill during his trial with the club, playing in two reserve games. In September 1996, he came on as a substitute for Jamie Lawrence in a 2–1 win over Scarborough in the Coca-Cola Cup 2nd round, second leg after Lawrence suffered a head injury after scoring Leicester's first goal.[2] It was his only Leicester appearance which led to his release by the club despite returning from Germany after recuperation.
In 1999, he made two appearances for Rot-Weiß Oberhausen in the 2. Bundesliga.[3]
