Recently, the news of the death of football legend Franz Beckenbauer (✝78) shocked the sports world. The former kicker had been struggling with health problems for several years. On Friday, the father of the family found his final resting place at Munich’s Perlacher Forst cemetery: the former world champion was buried in the immediate vicinity of his deceased son Stephan. Now one of the last videos from Franz on.
At a SC Reyer anniversary celebration, the football icon sang his hit “Nobody can separate good friends” together with other sporting players. Bild publishes the video recording from 2021, which is currently circulating on social networks. In the clip works Franz already marked by his illness.
A memorial service for the former national coach will be held in the Allianz Arena in Munich in the coming weeks. Chancellor Olaf Scholz (65) doesn’t miss it and will take part in the ceremony. The politician wanted to “show his great respect and recognition for an outstanding athlete in our country,” said government spokeswoman Christiane Hoffmann.
