About this person
Born in September 1955, Rummenigge rose through Bayern Munich in the late 1970s and hit his peak at the turn of the decade: back-to-back Ballon d'Or wins in 1980 and 1981, two European Cups, the Intercontinental Cup, and a pair of Bundesliga titles. With West Germany he lifted the 1980 European Championship and reached two World Cup finals, in 1982 and 1986, both times finishing second. After his playing career closed he moved into the Bayern executive suite, eventually becoming Chairman of the club's AG and spending nearly a decade as head of the European Club Association. Pelé named him to the FIFA 100 in 2004, a nod to the decade when "Kalle" was the sharpest striker in Europe.
