Schnoor made his name at Hamburger SV but left the club on a free transfer in 1998 to join Derby County. After two and a half years in England, scoring twice against Leicester City[1] and Leeds United,[2] he returned to Germany with VfL Wolfsburg in a swap deal involving Brian O'Neil. After that he played for Holstein Kiel where he ended his playing career in 2007. In 2010 Schnoor returned to active play for one season in the fifth tier Oberliga with Hamburg amateur side Germania Schnelsen.[3]

As of February 2009, he is a player agent. His agency, Kick and Rush GmbH, represents, among others, Colin Kazim-Richards, Mathias Jørgensen, Marcus Tudgay, Giles Barnes, Christopher Poulsen and Wayne Routledge.

Schnoor currently also works as a pundit for German TV station Sport1.
