Uli Hoeneß is to testify in the summer fairy tale trial before the Frankfurt am Main regional court. Judge Eva-Marie Distler said at the start of the second day of the trial that the honorary president of record champions Bayern Munich had been invited as a witness on April 15th.

At that time, the now 72-year-old indicated in a TV interview and in the podcast “11 Leben” that he knew why there were the dubious millions in payments surrounding the 2006 World Cup in Germany.
