Mehmet Scholl


DoB: Oct 16, 1970

PoB: Karlsruhe, BRD

Position: Midfielder

Clubs represented: Karlsruher, Bayern Mönchen

Total appearances/goals: 469/117

Total caps: 36/8

Honours:
8 domestic league titles, 5 domestic cups, 4 domestic league cups
1 UEFA Champion's League, 1 UEFA Cup, 1 Intercontinental Cup

Euro Cup: 96

Players's Player of the Year: 00
Bayern Mönchen All Time Best Eleven

Highs:
His 15 year tenure at Bayern saw him win 8 league titles, a german record he shares with another former Bayern stalwart, Oliver Kahn. Of these 3 were doubles and of course in 01 the treble with the Champion's League.
He started the Euro 96 final but rather curiously it was his substitute Oliver Bierhoff who went on to score two goals (including a golden goal) and win the man of the match award.


Lows:
Niggling injuries saw him far from the Germany squad, retiring from international play before WC02. This made him one of the most successful german players to have never played in a World Cup.
Injuries are also part of another of his records: he is the most subbed player in Bayern Mönchen history.
