Hospitalized: Concerns Surround Uli Hoeneß
In a surprising turn of events, Uli Hoeneß, honorary president of FC Bayern Munich, was hospitalized on August 2, 2025, following a burst vein during a charity golf event near Bonn.
The incident occurred during the "Green of 18" tournament, which was hosted by Timotheus Höttges, CEO of Bayern's main sponsor Telekom. FC Bayern's president, Herbert Hainer, was also present at the event.
According to reports, Hoeneß fainted at the event and was taken by ambulance to a clinic. Remarkably, he was fully conscious upon arrival and eventually returned home by Saturday evening. The incident was described as a generally harmless medical event, and no official statement was made immediately by Hoeneß or FC Bayern Munich.
There is no available information indicating direct involvement of FC Bayern Munich officials in his hospitalization beyond the usual awareness and concern expected for an honorary club figure during such an event.
As for the future of the club, discussions regarding Thomas Müller's salary are underway for his potential move to Vancouver. Meanwhile, it was confirmed that Philippe Coutinho's loan to Spanish club Celta Vigo includes an option for Bayern to recall him at any time, but Sergiño Dest's departure to Barcelona has left a void in the team's defence.
