Under Hansi Flick, Bayern Munich won the Bundesliga, DFB-Pokal, and UEFA Champions League in the 2019-20 season, and as a result, the side completed the continental treble for the second time in the club’s history.
He was also named as the German Football Manager of the Year by sports magazine kicker and he also won the UEFA Men’s Coach of the Year Award.
The following season, he led Bayern to win the 2020 UEFA Super Cup against Sevilla.
On April 17 this year, Flick announced that he had told the club he wanted to leave at the end of the season.
