Bayern Munich induct retiring Lahm into Hall of Fame

The German giants have confirmed that the retiring captain is to join the likes of Franz Beckenbauer and Gerd Muller in their Hall of Fame

Philipp Lahm will be added to Bayern Munich's Hall of Fame after claiming the Bundesliga title for an eighth time in his distinguished career ahead of his impending retirement.

Bayern's captain will make his final career appearance against Freiburg at the Allianz Arena on Saturday having been at the club for his entire career, barring a two-year loan spell at Stuttgart.

Lahm, who skippered Germany in their World Cup triumph in 2014, will become the first Bayern player to join the Hall of Fame since legendary goalkeeper Oliver Kahn in 2008.
