"It was clear from a young age that FC Bayern were the team for him. Jan received his first Bayern jersey at the age of eight - in the days of Robert Lewandowksi. "I was always really impressed by the Allianz Arena, by the atmosphere, by this Bavarian flair," he explains. Bayern exuded something special for him from the start. "I always find the club very likeable.""
"But he wanted to give it a try. On the Friday before the game, he took a bedsheet belonging to his grandma, painted it and hung it in the stadium. "I just thought: maybe he will see it." Then came this one moment. Tah took his shirt off, went to the steward and pointed to Jan. "A massive dream came true in that moment," he says softly. "I couldn't even think anymore after that. Not until the way back.""
Jan Feddermann attended his first live match at the Allianz Arena during Bayern's 8-1 win over VfL Wolfsburg and received Jonathan Tah's match-worn shirt. He became a Bayern fan early, receiving his first Bayern jersey at age eight in the Robert Lewandowksi era, and was captivated by the stadium atmosphere and Bavarian flair. He prepared a painted bedsheet sign from his grandmother's sheet and hung it in the stadium hoping Tah might notice. After full time Tah removed his shirt, pointed to Jan and handed it to him, causing tears of joy and an unforgettable, emotional reaction.
