About this person
Born 9 May 1945, Josef Heynckes spent his playing peak as a striker in Borussia Mönchengladbach's golden run through the 1960s and '70s, collecting national championships, a DFB-Pokal, and a UEFA Cup as the club dominated German football. He remains the fourth-highest scorer in Bundesliga history with 220 goals. The 1977 European Cup final, Mönchengladbach's only appearance, ended in defeat to Liverpool. As a West Germany international he won UEFA Euro 1972 and the 1974 World Cup. He turned to management and proved sharper from the touchline: four Bundesliga titles with Bayern Munich and two Champions League trophies, first with Real Madrid in 1997-98, then with Bayern in 2012-13 as the centrepiece of a treble. He came back more than once, and each time the silverware followed.
