He made his competitive debut for the senior team on 1 August 2009 in a 3–1 away victory over Magdeburg in the DFB-Pokal.[2] He made his league debut for the club just eight days later in a 3–1 home victory over Augsburg. He was subbed off for Mariusz Kukiełka in the 87th minute.[3]

Erzgebirge Aue

In July 2012, Miatke signed with 2. Bundesliga club Erzgebirge Aue.
