Bayern Munich Players Wear Cockatoo T-Shirts to Celebrate 35th Bundesliga Title in 2026
Bayern Munich players celebrate their 35th Bundesliga title with special cockatoo-themed T-shirts in 2026.
Bayern Munich Secure 35th Bundesliga Title Bayern Munich's players celebrated their latest Bundesliga title win on Sunday with T-shirts displaying cockatoos wearing club shirts. Their 4-2 win over Stuttgart on Sunday sealed a 35th German top-flight title and a second in as many seasons for head coach Vincent Kompany. ## Last Season's Title Win Came through Other Results While Bayern secured their own title this season, last season's maiden crown under Kompany came due to results elsewhere. When Bayer Leverkusen's draw with Freiburg last season was enough to hand Bayern the title, Kompany and his players were following the result on a television in a Munich restaurant. ## The Cockatoo Statue Origin Story In that restaurant, the players took a shine to a cockatoo statue which was later taken by one of Bayern's players. A week later, the statue was front and centre of Bayern's title celebrations. 'I'm not saying who it was,' Kompany said during last season's title win. 'The story will come out some time.' ## Cockatoo Statue Makes Appearance Again in 2026 The infamous cockatoo statue also featured on the pitch during Sunday's title celebrations, being pictured with players including Bayern midfielder Leon Goretzka.
