Bayern Munich's best academy graduates of all time: From Beckenbauer to Muller, Lahm to Alaba

Bayern Munich are the dominant club in Germany and a true European giant.

They are the most successful club in Germany, winning a record 32 Bundesliga titles and 20 DFB-Pokal trophies. Such is their dominance that they've won 10 Bundesliga titles in a row since 2013.

Their exploits do not stop with Germany. They were crowned champions of Europe six times (three times in the Champions League era), won the Europa League (UEFA Cup back then) and the Cup Winners' Cup (now defunct) once each.
