He is currently the Chief Executive Officer of the FC Bayern München AG, a daughter company of

in 1979. In 1979–80 he scored 26 goals and became for the first time the
's top striker, a feat he could repeat in 1981 and 1984 with 29 and 26 goals, respectively.
With Bayern he won in 1975 and 1976 the European Cup of Champions. In 1975 he did not take part in the final of the competition, whilst in the year thereafter a glass of brandy sufficiently prepared the nervous Rummenigge to contribute to the defeat of

, Rumenigge's career in Italy was mostly marred by injury problems. At the end of his contract in 1987 Rummenigge moved on to Swiss first division club
in Geneva, where he saw his career out. In his last season, 1988–89 he had his last success, becoming top scorer in the Swiss league with 24 goals.

Rummenigge also took part in two European Championship tournaments. In the 1980 competition in Italy Germany defeated Belgium in the final by 2-1 and won the trophy. The 1984 tournament is engraved as one of the most unsuccessful undertakings of the German national team. Germany was already ousted in the group stage.
Altogether, between 1976 and 1986, Rummenigge amassed 95 caps and scored 45 goals for the German national team, including one in the
