Bookmark: Oliver Kahn’s Chinese Homepage

Oliver Kahn is currently enjoying the last season of his professional football career and as of next summer he’ll be our man in Asia. His popularity over there is probably one of those cross-cultural mysteries that have yet to be solved, but there’s nothing wrong letting Bayern Munich and the Bundesliga profit from it.

To build up some excitement prior to his arrival, Kahn decided to use the international break for a short trip to China. “I have a lot of fans in Asia, especially in China, and it is my way of giving them back something for their support,” Kahn told Shanghai Daily.

So, while he will be pretending to be there solely, to teach fellow pupils the ways of Bavarian Crane Kung-Fu Goalkeeping, he’ll secretly make sure that the Bundesliga becomes the most watched football league in all of China. At the same time, he’ll educate the People’s Republic, that the Premier League is an evil organisation, with clubs run by a few men with dubious pasts who don’t give much about their fans, but rather milk them to make their dreams of becoming an economic super power a reality. At least he’ll do so, until the Communist Party in Peking accidentally mistakes his ramblings for regime critical propaganda, throws him out of the country and bans his Chinese Homepage.

Thus, enjoy it while it lasts.
