Following his playing career, Beckenbauer became the manager of the West German national team. In the 1986 FIFA World Cup, he led the team to the final, where they lost to Argentina. Four years later, in 1990, he guided West Germany to World Cup victory in a rematch against Argentina. This achievement made him the first individual to win the World Cup both as a player and as a manager.
In 1990, Beckenbauer collaborated briefly with Olympique Marseille but left the club in 1991. He returned to Bayern Munich in 1992, and in 1994, he became the president of the club. His influence extended beyond Bayern, and in 1998, he became vice-president of the German Football Association (DFB). Since 2002, Beckenbauer has served as chairman of Bayern Munich’s advisory board. He played a key role in Germany’s successful bid to host the 2006 FIFA World Cup.
As of 2017, Franz Beckenbauer’s net worth was estimated to be approximately $10 million, a reflection of his long-standing legacy in both playing and administrative roles in international football.
Beckenbauer married Brigitte in 1966, and the couple had two sons, Michael and Stephan. Stephan followed in his father's footsteps and became a professional footballer. Tragically, he passed away in 2015 after a long illness. The marriage ended in 1990, and that same year, Beckenbauer married Sybille. They had one son, Thomas, before divorcing in 2004. In 2006, he married Heidi Burmester, with whom he has two children: Francessca and Noel.
