President of Bayern: German championship lags behind only Spain © EuroFootball.com

President of Munich Uli Hoeness considers the German championship as the second most powerful league in Europe.

In the UEFA coefficient table, the Bundesliga recently surpassed the Italian Serie A and currently ranks third after the Spanish and English leagues.

However, Hoeness is convinced that the Spanish championship is the only stronger league.

"At the moment, the Bundesliga is in second place after Spain," said Bayern's leader to "Bild am Sonntag." - Italy has been behind us for a long time, and soon the same will happen with England."

And he added: "Or maybe our championship is already the strongest."

The last time a German club won the Champions League was ten years ago. However, in recent seasons, Bayern and Schalke from Gelsenkirchen reached the semifinals.
