Overview
- The feature-length "Rudi Völler – Es gibt nur einen" premiered this week at Frankfurt’s Gibson Club before a crowd including Julian Nagelsmann, Lothar Matthäus, Michael Ballack and Otto Rehhagel.
- The documentary begins streaming on Sky on Friday.
- The film foregrounds Völler’s Rhein‑Main roots with a visit to his childhood home in Hanau, which he called the most moving moment after decades away.
- On screen and at the premiere he is presented as a mentor and father figure to national coach Julian Nagelsmann, reflecting his extended DFB role through mid‑2028.
- The narrative situates his renewed federation influence since the 2023 crisis, including selecting Nagelsmann after Hansi Flick’s departure, against a testing World Cup‑qualifying autumn.
