Bayern Munich is by far the most successful club in the history of the Bundesliga. The Bavarian giants have won the championship more often than any other team and have played a leading role in European football for decades.
A record streak
From 2012-13 to 2022-23, Bayern won 11 consecutive league titles, an extraordinary sequence in one of Europe’s top leagues.
Leverkusen’s unbeaten title
In 2023-24, Bayer Leverkusen ended the run by winning its first Bundesliga title. The team, coached by Xabi Alonso, did so without losing a league match, which made the achievement even more special.
What comes next
Bayern remains a powerful force, but the Leverkusen story showed that smart coaching and good recruitment can challenge the champions.
