Tennis legend Boris Becker has long been a fan of Bayern Munich. The 6-time grand slam champion even proclaimed that he was a football fan and player before he was a Bayern Munich fan.
Speaking in an exclusive interview with CNN, Becker when asked why he supports Munich said:
“I am a big fan of Bayern and have been for years. I've actually been on the advisory board for ten years. Every German kid, before they walk and before they can talk, they love their football. It is a similar story for me. Before I was a tennis player I was a football player [and supporter].”
