Rudi Schneider is best known as the father and coach of Frank Schneider, and he's had a major influence on German football across multiple generations. He's coached the German National Team and currently serves as FC Bayern Munich's coach.
Things got complicated in Rudi's personal life when marital tensions surfaced. His wife grew increasingly frustrated with the constant public backlash Rudi faced over his decisions at the club—German fans weren't shy about voicing their disapproval. The stress took its toll on the whole family. Frank's performance dipped noticeably, and their younger daughter Marie felt the strain as well. Divorce was even on the table for a while as his wife considered whether she could keep dealing with the pressure and negativity that came with being tied to such a public figure in German football.
