Former Bayern Munich president Uli Hoeneß has acknowledged feeling nervous ahead of the German club's meeting with Atlético Madrid, according to a report published Friday.
The admission comes from Hoeneß, who served as Bayern's president for multiple spells and remains a prominent figure at the club. The specific match referenced was not detailed in the available report, though Bayern Munich and Atlético Madrid have met in UEFA Champions League competition in previous seasons.
Hoeneß was photographed on September 16, 2026, at a reception in Munich where Bavarian Minister-President Markus Söder honored both the men's and women's teams for winning the 2025-26 German championship titles.
