Raimond Aumann

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Raimond Aumann (born October 12, 1963 in Augsburg (District Oberhausen), West Germany) was a German footballer. His nickname is Balu (Germanized version of Baloo the bear in the Jungle Book).

He was a goalkeeper in the Bundesliga between 1982 and 1994. The first two years he was only reserve keeper of FC Bayern Munich (first choice was Jean-Marie Pfaff). In 1984 he became number 1 for the first time until his injury in November 1985. When Jean-Marie Pfaff left Bayern Munich in 1988, Raimond Aumann finally became number 1. He was considered one of the best German goalkeepers at that time.

With FC Bayern Munich he won six titles (in 1985, '86, '87, '89, '90 and '94). He also won the German Cup twice, before he transferred in 1994 to Beşiktaş J.K., where he was to help them to a 1995 league victory. He retired from football in November 1995.

He played four times internationally in 1989 and 1990, and played in the 1990 World Cup.

Currently he is supporters and fan club contact person for FC Bayern Munich.
