Franz Beckenbauer had a remarkable career at Bayern Munich, winning many titles. The club is honoring their legend with a special tribute.

Beckenbauer played as a libero and midfielder, winning the World Cup in 1974, finishing as runner-up in 1966, and coming in third in 1970. He also claimed the European Championship in 1972 and was a runner-up in 1976.

A two-time Ballon d’Or winner (1972, 1976), he achieved victory in the European Cup three times and won the Bundesliga five times.
