Early life
Born in Ireland to German parents, Micheál grew up in County Mayo and represented his County in the 2009 All Ireland minor football final at Croke Park against Armagh.
Sligo Rovers
Micheál made his League of Ireland debut at Sligo Rovers in 2009. Having first appeared as an unused substitute in the latter stages of the season, he made one league appearance in the second last game of the season, starting between the posts in a 3-1 defeat against Bohemians at Dalymount Park on 30 October, before moving to Athlone Town in 2010.
Athlone Town
He made his league bow for Athlone on 17 July 2010 in a 2-1 defeat away to Longford Town and was ever present for Brendan Place's side for the remainder of the season, racking up 15 league appearances. Similarly in 2011 he missed just six league games under new boss Mike Kerley, adding 27 league appearances to his total.
Monaghan United
In December 2011 Micheál signed for Roddy Collins at Monaghan United. But just six months later, on 18 June, Monaghan withdrew from the league and Micheál signed for Mick Cooke at Drogheda United on 9 July.
Drogheda United
He went on to only play 1 league game in the 2012 season for Drogheda, a 1-0 loss to UCD but Micheál fared better in the 2013 season, making 14 league appearances for the club and keeping seven clean sheets in those games. Michael also played in two Cup finals that year as Drogheda fell at the last hurdle in both the EA and FAI Cups. Micheál stayed with Drogheda for the 2014 season and played sixteen times for the Drogs, keeping six clean sheets, as they finished ninth in the league table.
Return to Sligo Rovers
In January 2016 Schlingermann re-signed with Sligo Rovers.
