On Monday the family of Franz Beckenbauer announced the death of the double world champion (as a player and as a coach) at the age of 78, victim of a long illness. According to his longtime colleague and former member of the supervisory board of Bayern Munich, Helmut Markwortbelieved that “mental suffering” killed him.
In a ‘Focus’ video, Markwort blamed the media for the “emotional suffering” of the ‘Kaiser’: “The death of his son was fatal. And the newspapers, which first promoted him, then fired he. The media “In the end he felt alone and didn’t want to know anything about anyone,” said the 87-year-old journalist and politician.
“If you believe in psychosomatics, in the connection between physical suffering and mental illness, you can assume that what happened to his son and the public persecution made him sick. In the end, he was really sick and that was terrible for him. Furthermore, “He doesn’t want to show his worn appearance in public anymore.” “He has trouble speaking, he has trouble seeing, and he can’t and doesn’t want to see friends he. He ended up a sad old man.”
