I raise the trophy briefly, after all, I have to test if Thomas M\u00fcller can hold it with one hand for our photo shoot. The original one, the players got on the last matchday against Freiburg, but also the copy is something special. It costs 15.000 \u20ac and it\u2019s a little bit smaller. Only the silver-manyfactury \u201cKoch and Bergfeld\u201d from Bremen is allowed to make duplicates of the Bundesliga , DFB and Champions-League trophy and only if they get the permission of the DFB and DFL. Then M\u00fcller enters the room. He lifts the trophy expertly. &#8220;This one is lighter, because the base is missing,&#8221; is the expert&#8217;s assessment.

In the League history the record holders Philipp Lahm, Bastian Schweinsteiger, Oliver Kahn and Mehmet Scholl (each one of them won eight championships) are all former players of Bayern Munich. &#8220;I would lie if I say that I do not want to beat this record,&#8221; says Thomas in the interview in SPORTBILD. &#8220;My contract with FC Bayern runs until 2021. If I do not have an eight behind my championship titles in this time span, something went wrong at FC Bayern. Even if we have to make a great effort, we want the title in every season. &#8221;<\/p>\n<p>FC Bayern has copied all its trophies for the museum in the Allianz Arena &#8211; a big order! There are even some players who ordered the trophy for their living room. Franck Rib\u00e9ry ordered the \u201cTriple\u201d ensemble from 2013. The Champions League trophy stands in front of his treadmill and motivates him, as he showed me during my visit for a homestory.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/cfbayern.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/img_6818.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-711\" src=\"http:\/\/cfbayern.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/img_6818.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"708\" height=\"733\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cfbayern.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/img_6818.jpg 708w, https:\/\/cfbayern.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/img_6818-290x300.jpg 290w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 708px) 100vw, 708px\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nThomas M\u00fcller does not have any trophies at home and even his medals aren\u2019t presented that much. &#8220;It is not about the metal&#8221;, he tells us to the end of the conversation. &#8220;It&#8217;s about what you experience.&#8221; With just 27 years, M\u00fcller has a lot to come, yet.
