Franck Ribéry

The story of Franck Ribéry is unique. The beginning of his life is overshadowed by a tragic car accident. He survives, but is marked by a prominent scar on his face. From that moment on, he has to fight - against the cruel provocations of other children, against prejudices on the soccer field. He plays for a long time in lower leagues and at various clubs, earning his money alongside his father in construction. But then the coach of FC Metz sees him in a video and is impressed - Ribéry becomes a professional soccer player in the French Ligue 1 at the age of 21. In July 2007, he joins FC Bayern Munich, where he quickly becomes a fan favorite. With him, Bayern can no longer be imagined away from the international top. After an affair with a minor prostitute and a scandalous World Cup with the French national team.
