Bayern have moved quickly to strengthen their already strong team. Hansi Flick’s side recently beat Tigres in the final of the Club World Cup to complete a simply sensational sixtuplet trophy haul.

Since Flick took over in November 2019, Bayern have won 58 out of the 68 games he’s been in charge. So that means he’s won them a trophy every 11.3 games.
