FC Bayern Munich crowned "Fan Champions" for the eleventh time – Bundesliga Barometer presented at the Allianz Arena
FC Bayern Munich not only won the German championship in the 2024/25 season, but also secured first place in the Bundesliga Barometer, which was published by SPORT BILD and supported by RYZR AG. The Bundesliga Barometer, developed by SLC Management Managing Director Prof. Dr. Alfons Madeja, is the “voice of the fans” and is considered the oldest and largest customer satisfaction analysis in German soccer. Since the introduction of the Bundesliga Barometer, the results have served as an important controlling instrument in quality management for those responsible for Bundesliga clubs.
On the occasion of Bayern's home game against SV Werder Bremen (ranked 16th in the Barometer) last Friday evening, the Bundesliga Barometer Cup was presented on the pitch at the Allianz Arena. The trophy was presented to FC Bayern CEO Jan-Christian Dreesen in front of a festive crowd of fans by Christian Müller and Jérôme Boateng (both co-founders of RYZR AG), Prof. Dr. Alfons Madeja, and Sven Beckedahl (editor-in-chief of SPORT BILD).
The 22nd Bundesliga Barometer, published once again in SPORT BILD and presented by RYZR, the experts in sports recovery and training products, is more balanced than ever before. Only 0.4 points separate first place from 18th place. A total of 5,700 fans of all Bundesliga clubs were surveyed on 21 different criteria relating to service quality and satisfaction with their own club, giving all clubs the same opportunity.
Jérôme Boateng and Christian Müller from RYZR explain why they want to support the clubs with the barometer: “Just as the barometer examines the high quality of the clubs off the pitch, our philosophy and products stand for the highest quality and performance on the pitch. We already work with many clubs, competitive and recreational athletes, and know that success in sport is also an essential quality factor for fans.”
Prof. Dr. Alfons Madeja, inventor of the Bundesliga Barometer, explains: “Fans rely on neutral assessments. The Bundesliga Barometer, as the ‘voice of the fans,’ is the tool for evaluating clubs. If the fan experience is first-class, this helps to make economic success less dependent on sporting results.”
The results show that nowhere are fans happier with their club than at FC Bayern Munich. FC Bayern received the top score of 2.02. For the eleventh time, the record champions are at the top of the table and are therefore also record fan champions. Fans gave FC Bayern the best and most consistent scores in the categories of image (1.45) and club (1.67).
Behind FC Bayern, RB Leipzig came in second with a score of 2.12, and Borussia Dortmund completed the podium with a score of 2.16 in third place. Eintracht Frankfurt achieved the best scores across all sub-criteria for atmosphere in the stadium (score of 1.13) and VfL Bochum for fans (also score of 1.13).
