Exploring the Cozy Footprints of the Klinsmann Family
The daily life of the Klinsmann family unfolds quietly in the "Klinsmann" bakery in the Botnang district of Stuttgart. The bakery, which takes its name from the family name and still smells appetizingly good, witnessed the soccer partnership between Germany and the United States during the 2014 World Cup, when Klinsmann was the head coach of the United States and the German and American flags flew on the lintel of his bakery. Even though Germany defeated Brazil in the eighth-quarter finals, Klinsmann's bakery celebrated the victory with a loaf of bread emblazoned with the words "7:1" and the German tricolor sugar sprinkles. Klinsmann, who proudly calls himself "the son of a baker from Botnang", was once a skilled apprentice baker himself.
Klinsmann's love story began with a beautiful encounter with Chinese-American model Debbie Chin. They settled in Huntington Beach, California, USA, where they welcomed their love child, son Jonathan, born in 1997, who inherited his father's soccer genes and became a professional goalkeeper, now playing for Hertha Berlin in the German Bundesliga. Laila, born in 2001, is a joyful addition to the Klinsmann family.
