Nine German championship titles; six German Cups, plus four Super Cups; one Champions League; one European Super Cup; one Club World Cup, that’s Franck Ribéry’s impressive list of achievements at Bayern Munich. A haul that on the other side of the Rhine earned him the nickname “Kaiser Franck”.
Along with Kingsley Coman, Bixente Lizarazu and Willy Sagnol, Franck Ribéry is one of the French players who have made their mark on the history of the Rekordmeister, the biggest German club. A caste that the Bavarians’ French summer recruit intends to integrate: the U21 international Michael Olise, poached from Crystal Palace for 60 million euros – excluding bonuses.
Impressed by Ribéry’s longevity
” I have always liked Franck Ribéry with his disconcerting game and a mentality that is for me an example to follow. I am impressed by his longevity at Bayern (12 years, from 2007 to 2019, editor’s note). He left his mark on the club ” whispered the 22-year-old attacking midfielder this Thursday during his presentation to the press.
And to look forward with enthusiasm to his new challenge.
Last season, Bayern didn’t win a single title and after just a few days I can already feel the hunger that drives the whole team. The infrastructure, the stadium, the conditions, everything is there to have fun and flourish. (…) The squad is full of qualities in every position. We also have the Champions League final which will take place in our stadium (May 31, 2025) as a goal. »
