How long have you been a fan of your club and are there still players in the squad that have been there since then?

I’ll start with myself. I started supporting Bayern in 2011/12 and the only players left are Thomas Müller and Manuel Neuer (both contract until 2024). Actually a weird thought, that when they decide to end their careers, I will be supporting a completely different team than back then, just the club name and stadium will be the same.

    Well technically nacho, Lucas vaszquez and carvajal, but all three were still youth players back then. Also, carvajal had a brief stint with Leverkusen in between, so technically he’s not been there since I started supporting real Madrid.

    Thomas Müller. I’m American and same age as him, started supporting the same year he got his first start. The club that got me into the sport.

    My “second club” is Napoli, Insigne was the last to leave.

    A very distant third, I cannot stand the premier league, and don’t really watch it. But I really liked Garth Bale back in the day, and casually followed Tottenham and do to this day. In Minnesota they are the most popular club, Son Heung-min is the only one left.

    I mainly watch Bundesliga and Serie A. First match was on my first eurotrip in 2015, saw bayern opener against Hamburg. Seen Stuttgart twice, including when they last clinched the second tier title, that was an awesome party. Last October I went to my first Napoli match against Bologna, which was really special. On that same trip I saw Frankfurt host BVB.

    Started supporting Chelsea in the 2000s so unfortunately no players are left. There aren’t even any players left from the 2021 UCL Winning team except for Reece and Chilly. Crazy.
