Bayern München 22-23 Third Kit Features Design Inspired by Bavarian Card Game Schafkopf
The Adidas Bayern Munich 2022-2023 third football shirt features a subtle design consisting of outlined diamonds and different symbols. These symbols are the 'pips' of German playing card suits like Schafkopf - Hearts, Bells, Acorns, and Leaves.
Schafkopf is a popular Bavarian trick-taking card gam
Schafkopf is a popular German trick-taking card game of the Ace-Ten family for four players that evolved, towards the end of the 19th century, from German Schafkopf. It is still very popular in Bavaria, where it is their national card game played by around two million people, but it is also played elsewhere in Germany and in Austria.
Indeed, FC Bayern Munchen shared a teaser picture for the kit featuring several players and their manager Julian Nagelsmann playing Schafkopf. Serge Gnabry, Lina Magull, and Thomas Müller are wearing the unreleased kit in the picture.
Thomas Müller is undoubtedly the club's biggest fan of Schafkopf - the traditional card game also inspires his personal logo.
