In honor of the "Emperor"
German competition becomes the “Franz Beckenbauer Cup”
In future, the German champions will compete against the DFB Cup winners in the "Franz Beckenbauer Cup". As the German newspaper "Bild" claims to have learned, the DFB and DFL have agreed to rename the Super Cup in honor of the 1974 world champion.
Kronen Zeitung als bevorzugte Google-Quelle hinzufügen Beckenbauer passed away on 7 January 2024 at the age of 78, and FC Bayern has already honored his club legend by renaming the access road where the Munich Arena is located Franz-Beckenbauer-Platz 5. In addition, the jersey number "5", the one Beckenbauer wore on the back, will never be given out again.
The DFB also wants to commemorate the "Kaiser". However, any ideas of naming the new campus in Frankfurt or the DFB Cup after Beckenbauer were rejected; instead, the Super Cup will bear the name of the greatest German footballer of all time from now on. The competition will take place on August 16, 2025 as the "Franz Beckenbauer Cup".
