2002 was a year that could have been very different for Bayern Munich fans.
Michael Ballack was already a superstar in Germany, but he left for Bayer Leverkusen and ended up losing the Bundesliga, DFB-Pokal, and Champions League final with them, plus missing the World Cup final shortly after.
It’s wild to think how much impact he might have had if he had stayed with Bayern.
Would the Bundesliga title have stayed in Munich & not Dortmund and could we have gone further in Europe, had Ballack had stayed?

What the fuck is that bullshit? Ballack only transfered from Leverkusen to Bayern in 2002.
Did AI write this?
He’s the reason why I became a fan of Bayern. After watching him in the 2002 World Cup, he signed for this club that season and that was the connection for me. They don’t make midfielders like him anymore. Bossy, technical, passing, controlling, power shot. And a captain!
Unfortunately, he’s always been a second place baller. He missed the 2002 World Cup final because of yellow cards. And he lost 2 champions league finals to some of the best teams ever put out. 2002 Madrid and 2008 Man U
Also he went from Leverkusen to Munich in 2002 so your info isn’t correct. He won the Bundesliga and Pokal 3 times as doubles in 4 seasons with Munich
