Chairman Franz Beckenbauer Bundesliga 3rd DFB-Pokal Semi Final | Manager Ottmar Hitzfeld Champions League Quarter Final Intercontinental Cup Winners | |
FC Bayern Munich failed to defend either the league or Champions League titles won in the previous season, finishing third in Bundesliga and losing out to eventual champions Real Madrid in the quarter final. Its reaction to the losses was signing Michael Ballack and Zé Roberto from Champions League finalists Bayer Leverkusen, as well as Sebastian Deisler form Hertha Berlin, with the midfield being singled out as the key area in which the side needed to improve upon.
