Joseph Laumann (born 31 August 1983) is a Moroccan-German football coach and former player. He is the manager of Standard Liège's feeder team SL16.

Laumann was born in Marrakesh, Morocco. He started his career at Oestrich-Iserlohn before moving to SpVgg Erkenschwick in 2004. He was then snapped up by Bundesliga club Schalke 04 in 2005, where he also played in the reserve.

In 2006, Laumann moved to 2. Bundesliga side Rot Weiss Ahlen where he played 30 games, scoring 11 goals. He then moved on to VfB Lübeck before playing in the 3. Liga for the first half of 2008. In January 2008 he moved to Rot-Weiß Erfurt, where he was fired in May 2008 after a hidden trial with Vitesse under the pseudonym "Joseph Ratzinger". In July 2008, Laumann went on trial with Scottish First Division side Dunfermline Athletic while the Scottish side were on their summer tour of Austria. After playing one match for the Pars against Romanian side Timişoara, manager Jim McIntyre said that they did not come together with the German striker. On 16 October 2008, after five months without a club Lauman signed a contract with Sportfreunde Siegen.

Together with his coach from SC Roland Beckum, Ismail Atalan, Laumann joined Regionalliga team Sportfreunde Lotte at the beginning of 2015 in order to work there under Atalan as his assistant coach. Atalan and Laumann achieved promotion to the 3. Liga in 2016, as well as relegation there in the following season; The team also reached the quarter-finals in the 2016/17 DFB Cup.

In November 2017, Laumann returned to Sportfreunde Lotte, again as an assistant coach, however, this time under head coach Andreas Golombek. He left the club again at the end of the season, when head coach Golombek was replaced by Matthias Maucksch.

On 9 April 2018, Laumann returned to the club for the third time, once again under Ismail Atalan, who had been re-appointed as the head coach of Sportfreunde Lotte.
