Yes he was. Sold to Barca in summer of 1973.

Roberto Carlos and Rivaldo, for sure.

So but for the unfortunate incidents in the 2006 semifinal,
Bayern would have actually topped this list? I must disagree
with Daniele, football does suck, even when you for a moment
think it doesn't.

Anyway, for Bayern it was, without checking:
1930 - 1962: none
1966: 1 (Beckenbauer)
1970: none
1974: 6 (Maier, Beckenbauer, G. M�ller, U. Hoene�, Schwarzenbeck, Breitner)
1978: none
1982: 3 (Breitner, Rummenigge, Dremmler)
1986: 4 (Eder, Matth�us, Brehme, D. Hoene�)
1990: 2 (Augenthaler, Kohler)
1994: 1 (Jorginho)
1998: 1 (Lizarazu)
2002: 3 (Kahn, Linke, Jeremies)
2006: 1 (Sagnol)

This adds up to... 22. Could be right, but I'm not sure of
Brehme in 86.

....ok, Brehme is wrong, and I forgot about that substitution.

Anyway, so Bayern has a streak of 7 consecutive finals.
Now can some village club from this mediterranian
dwarf state top *this*?!?

Real: Stielike, Valdano, R. Carlos, Zidane...
Barca: Cruyff, Rivaldo...

Where did Mario Kempes play in 78?

Obviously you remember the 1932 championship of Bayern well :-)

If I had been posed this question before looking things up,
I would have actually guessed 1938. But the answer is 1958,
which is unsurprising given that in 1954/55 Bayern was
relegated the only time in history (with 1954 world champion
Hans Bauer still in the squad). On the other hand,
they came back the next season, and won the cup in 57, so
there must have been some candidates.

Quite a shame, that Sepp Herberger was stubborn enough
to keep the squad Bayern-free :-)

I did check after submitting my answer. Only one Bayern player in the
squad in both 1954 and 1962, I think.
