It was a personal matter for him to "be here today - the Montagskickers represent the spirit of togetherness at FC Bayern, which has also been lived off the pitch for decades," was Hainer's conclusion after the celebration with 55 guests at the Allianz Arena.

I am very flattered. I've always said that I feel very valued by players, by staff. And for me that's the ultimate. Moreover, that they also transmit it to you.
