They are FC Bayern veterans par excellence – but now at retirement age: President Uli Hoeneß (66) and President and CEO Karl-Heinz Rummenigge (63) have been talking for a while about personal leadership important, the upheaval that may be necessary for the flagship summit of German football par excellence. But when is a day? And who are the future leaders and faces of the record champions. Some people haunt the names – but nothing is concrete yet.
Shortly before the annual general meeting this Friday (7 pm) in the Munich Audi Dome, Uli Hoeneß dared a vision of FC Bayern of the future. "We have a special situation, Karl-Heinz Rummenigge will also stop in the next few years and we are of course very important to the club," said the president, "that's why the most important next, both, Three years to find a succession plan that will bring the club into calm waters. "

The questions that many of the nearly 300,000 members of the biggest football club in the world are now facing: how Hoeneß and Rummenigge position themselves under the pressure of putting pressure on their coach Niko Kovac? What do you say about change in all stars? And do the two leaders comment on the many speculations about Oliver Kahn as a future strong man of the Säbener Straße in front of the members?
Even in the absence of presidential elections, tonight promises a lot of enthusiasm for the German Football Championship.
It is clear that the numbers are once again impressive. Munich achieved during the 2017/18 season a record turnover of 657.4 million euros (640.5 the previous year). In addition, a rich profit of 29.5 million euros was transferred to the deposit account. Sportingly, the championship, which has evolved in recent weeks in the distant future, has sparked a lot of joy.
Hoeneß is still elected president for one year. The following year, he wants to be elected at the head of the club. The Rummenigges contract runs until December 31, 2019. The 63-year-old would like to make a decision in "next time" "and then I'll talk with Uli". An extension, although different from three years, is likely. Since 2002, Rummenigge is the record champion as chairman of the board.
Former Captain Kahn would be predestined to the position of General Manager. His sporting reputation is enormous, the economic competence also brings the 49 years old. Kahn himself has not yet unveiled his plans for the future, but he plays a pivotal role in the games of the spirit of Munich.
"The first man or men should get out of football as much as possible and, unlike the usual direction, players and coaches expect you to be on par with those in the main sport," said Hoeness. "When I say Franck Ribery today, you played well again, and I played TSV Aurich myself, so we can talk about making strawberry jam."
Hoeneß, 66, has spoken several times about his retirement from the club's management. This thought seems a little scary. "I said recently, in two or three years … everyone discussed my successors, so I was not a little shocked, but surprised," said Hoeness this week in the magazine of his basketball players.
He certainly would not want to "stay in the chair forever," said Hoeneß. But maybe a few more years. Because he feels that the estate solution would not, he will be there as long as possible, said Hoeneß. "But there must be a solution, because if with 68, 67 or 70 – at some point is the end, the sooner the better." A clear plan, of course, is different. – dpa / red
