Career edit

During the summer, Kunath would play for the European Football Academy in England, where he lived with an uncle. At age 17, he went to Bahrain through one of his coaches who wanted to establish a football academy there, where he helped coach youth teams and played in the first and second divisions.[2] After that, Kunath waited for a transfer to England but it never happened.[2]

In 2013, Kunath trialed with Suphanburi in Thailand, but failed to earn a contract because they said he was too small.[3] In 2018, he returned to Thailand with Nakhon Ratchasima, where he played for two seasons.[4][5][6][7]

In 2020, he signed for TSV Buchholz 08.[8][9][10] He left the club in January 2022.[11]
