Reuter won the World Cup and Champions League in his career as a player and in 2012 he joined Augsburg in 2012 as their commercial manager. The club was at the bottom of the league with just nine points and many people asked why he made the move.

But, Reuter had a vision. The 48-year-old wanted to establish Augsburg as a Bundesliga side. Using patience and skill and a knack for good signings - as well as good relations with the rest of the management team - he's achieved much of what he set out to do. Augsburg has grown into one of the most likeable and successful brands in the league.
