The 32-year-old Hannover stopper was struck by a regional train travelling between Norddeich and Hanover at a railway crossing in Neustadt am Rubenberge and died at the scene.

A statement from the German FA (DFB) released this morning read: "The Germany national team's training planned for this morning has been called off. All interview appointments are cancelled."

Tributes to Enke, whose agent indicated he had committed suicide, have flooded in from his former clubs.

The keeper started his career at Carl Zeiss Jena and had spells at Borussia Monchengladbach, Benfica, Barcelona, Fenerbahce and Tenerife before joining Hannover in 2004.

Hannover's official website, www.hannover96.de, was dedicated to their former number one.

A statement on an otherwise entirely black home page just read: "We are mourning Robert Enke, 24 August 1977-10 November 2009."

Monchengladbach vice-president Rainer Bonhof, Enke's coach at the club in the 1998/99 season, said on www.borussia.de: "This is shocking news, words fail me."

Carl Zeiss Jena spokesman Andreas Trautmann said: "The right words don't exist for such a tragedy. We are shocked and our thoughts are with Robert's family. They have our heart-felt sympathies."

Jena, now in the German third division, will this morning open a condolence book for Enke which they intend to pass on to his family, it was confirmed on www.fc-carlzeiss-jena.de.
