He managed to win the Bundesliga title seventeen times in nineteen years, and finished runner up both times they missed out. He also won the Champions League four times, and came runners up a further three times.

It may not be in the form his fans were hoping though, after he said he would be looking to buy a club, instead of manage one. "In my time as a manager" De Mario said, " I never had the chance to manage in the greatest country in the world, England. As a result, I have decided to buy a club in the English league."

It is not yet known which club De Mario is interested in buying. All we know is he has an estimated worth of around 40 Million, which means he will probably be looking at a mid-championship side. ​
