#2 1986: Karl-Heinze-Rummenigge
Former German forward Karl Heinze-Rummenigge was part of the 1982 and 1986 World Cup teams where the country lost the final to Italy and Argentina but watched from the stands as the country lifted the World Cup in 1990. However, Rummenigge won the 1980 Euro title and was a distinguished Bayern and Inter player with multiple accolades to his name.
Rummenigge moved to Inter Milan in 1984 and spent three years at the club before moving to Servette in Switzerland. An industrious forward and a lethal finisher, he is one of the few Germans who deserves to have the competition but has eluded him.
Currently a CEO of a Bayern Munich sister group called AG, Rummenige is very much connected to the game.
