Happy Birthday Lothar! On Sunday the German icon and football legend Lothar Matthäus turned 60 years old.

Lothar first signed with PUMA in 1978. He was born and raised in Herzogenaurach and he had his breakthrough into the first professional team squad at Borussia Mönchengladbach in 1979. After that the midfielder became a world famous player,  he won the World Cup, was named European Footballer of the Year and still holds the record for the most games for the German national team. He sure didn’t get there by playing small.
