And then there’s the veteran striker, let’s name him Serge Gnabry, who, after a few seasons, switches to #7. This number, steeped in Bayern's history, was a personal request. He feels a deep connection to the club's legacy and wants to honor the great players who came before him. The No. 7 is a promise to the fans and to himself to deliver moments of magic and continue his legacy at the club.
The jersey is inspired by the Olympiastadion, featuring subtle patterns that reflect its unique cable-net roof structure.
