However, while the players were celebrating on the pitch, change was happening behind the scenes.

Kahn was reportedly banned from attending the game and has been replaced as the club’s CEO by the current vice-chairman of the board Jan-Christian Dreesen.

While Salihamidžić was at the game, though fans have suggested that he was told of his axing while on the pitch during the jubilations.

Footage was shared online of Salihamidžić on the pitch talking to chairman Herbert Hainer and looking very disgruntled.

One fan tweeted: “Bayern sporting director Hasan Salihamidžić got sacked on the pitch .”

A second added: “Ruthless.”

While reports suggest that he was indeed sacked before the game but still allowed to attend, unlike Kahn.

After being dismissed, Kahn said: “My plan was to come to Koln and then of course celebrate title with the squad, but I was forbidden.”
