Elber: I hope FC Bayern continue to win many titles
A Bayern legend and ambassador Giovane Élber spoke to fcbayern.com on his 50th birthday.
Giovane, happy birthday! You turn 50 today, what celebrations are planned?
"We won't be able to celebrate massively because FC Bayern are playing Manchester City in the evening. Then we're on the plane to Munich. But I will catch up with friends in Munich. And of course I will celebrate in Brazil as soon as I have time to fly there again."
What was your personal highlight on the tour?
"In addition to the fans, for me personally it was the visit to the White House. Few people have the opportunity to go there. But we were invited with FC Bayern, the board and the players. It was great for me to be there. That was my birthday present, you could say."
So you've had a nice gift. What other wishes do you have for the next year of your life?
"My wish is to stay healthy and continue to live how I have done so far. I would say I've done everything right in life. Of course you make mistakes, but you try to forget them and not make them a second time. You learn from that too. Now I've reached an age where it's all about having fun in life. When I get up in the morning, I'm not in pain, and my family is fine, I say to myself: life is good."
And what are your wishes for FC Bayern?
"Success of course. It's what distinguishes a club, playing well and winning titles. I hope FC Bayern continue to win many titles."
