Paul Mebus

Paul Mebus (9 June 1920 – 11 December 1993) was a German footballer.

He was part of the West Germany national team that won the 1954 FIFA World Cup. He earned six caps for West Germany and played twice for the German 'B-team'. During his club career he played for VfL 06 Benrath and 1. FC Köln.

Career Mebus was playing both as an inside forward and as a half back. In the latter role, he was considered to be one of the best in German football during the 1950s. Although he was a technically sound player, he failed to become a regular for West Germany mostly because his fitness was not the best.

Mebus finished his career in 1956. Afterwards he started coaching SV Troisdorf 05 SC Euskirchen and SV Schlebusch in the 1960s as well as Tura Hennef, TuS Höhenhaus and Eitorf 09 in the 1970s. He died in 1993.
