At FC Luzern he was known for his counterattacking football.[3] He was replaced as Luzern manager by Murat Yakin.[4]

In April 2012 it was announced that Rolf Fringer would join FC Zurich as manager in summer 2012. When he was appointed he stated that it was his proudest day as he was an FCZ fan as a child.[5] His first transfer as manager was to sign Burim Kukeli, who he had managed at FC Luzern.[6] On Monday 26 November it was announced following a board meeting to relieve Fringer of his duties, with FC Zurich sitting a disappointing 7th in the Super League.
