Luc Holtz

A central midfield playmaker, Holtz started his career at Red Boys Differdange before joining Avenir Beggen for the 1992–93 season. With Avenir Beggen he immediately won two successive league and cup doubles and he himself claimed the 1993 Luxembourgish Footballer of the Year award. In 1999, he left them to become player/manager at Etzella Ettelbruck. With Etzella, he immediately won promotion to the Luxembourg National Division in his first season in charge. Also, he brought them their first major silverware by winning the cup in 2001. After relegation in 2002, they got promoted again at the first attempt. In 2003 and 2004 they lost two successive cup finals. Holtz retired as a player at the end of the 2007–08 season.

Holtz made his debut for Luxembourg in an October 1991 friendly match against Portugal, which surprisingly ended in a 1–1 draw. He went on to earn 55 caps, scoring one goal. He played in 15 FIFA World Cup qualification matches. He played his final international game in October 2002, a 0–7 loss against Romania.

Holtz's son, Kevin, is also a Luxembourg international footballer, making his debut under Luc.
