Jupp Heynckes is one of the most successful managers of all time

Unarguably one of the greatest managers in history. Heynckes had a successful playing career with Borussia Monchengladbach as a striker with whom he won multiple league and Cup titles.

One of the best forwards in his day, Heynckes was an integral part of the German side which dominated European and world football in the early and mid-1970s and till this day remains the third highest goalscorer of all time in the Bundesliga.

His managerial career has been even more successful, as he has won a plethora of titles at some of the biggest sides in history, while also having the honour of guiding Bayern Munich to the Treble in 2013.

He was appointed Real Madrid manager on 25th June 1997 and was triumphant in the Spanish Super Cup a little under two months when he defeated Barcelona 5-3 on aggregate.

The German ended his first season in charge by leading the club to its first European Cup triumph in over 32 years. Although in a strange twist of events, he was fired after his heroics.
