How do FC Bayern players live in Munich?
Many stars move into their villas in Grünwald - but not national player Leon Goretzka, as the recently published Amazon documentary about FCB shows.
Munich - FC Bayern * recently suffered a bitter defeat.
The 0: 5 at Borussia Mönchengladbach * in the DFB Cup was the highest cup defeat of all time.
Nevertheless, the players of the record champions quickly pulled together, clear victories against Union Berlin * and Benfica Lisbon * followed.
But the focus is not only on the championship in terms of sport; a recently published documentary on
Amazon
allows fans to take a rare look behind the scenes at the club.
Some viewers may have been surprised at how DFB * star Leon Goretzka * lives in Munich.
FC Bayern Munich: Do professionals all live in Grünwald?
The Amazon documentary suddenly shows Giesing
Usually the professionals of FC Bayern * are located in the noble Grünwald south of Munich.
But that is exactly what Leon Goretzka seems to have deliberately rejected.
As can be seen in the recently published documentary by the streaming service
Amazon Prime Video
“FC Bayern - Behind the Legend”, Goretzka made a conscious decision to move to the city.
The DFB star was not drawn to chic neighborhoods like Bogenhausen or Lehel - the 26-year-old lives in Giesing.
The district in the southeast of the city is also home to the Grünwalder Stadium, where arch-rival TSV 1860 plays its home games.
FC Bayern: Goretzka gives surprisingly private insight - "I loved it from the start"
“I loved it here right from the start,” says Goretzka, explaining the choice of his homeland.
“For me it was first and foremost about experiencing Munich, experiencing it, knowing what kind of city you live in.
I believe that this is not possible in Grünwald now. "

While the professional explains his motives, you can see him walking through the streets of Giesing and having a casual chat with people.
Nevertheless, the FCB star treats himself to a little “glamor factor”: During the documentary, Goretzka is shown over and over to comment on scenes.
The whole thing then takes place on his terrace, which offers a premium view over the rooftops of Munich - which was already marveled at on Instagram.
