	Stefan Effenberg - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Stefan Effenberg (born August 2, 1968 in Hamburg, West Germany) is a former German soccer player.
		In the late 1990s Effenberg was rarely out of the tabloids when he left his wife Martina and pinched Claudia, who at that time was the wife of former team mate Thomas Strunz.
		Later Effenberg published a controversial autobiography, notorious for its blatant contents and the poor language it was written in.

	Stefan Effenberg bids his final farewell
		Effenberg was never seriously bothered by his image, all that counted for the imposing player was success on the field.
		Effenberg said he may obtain his coaching licence in the future, but his family, which he has always managed to keep out of the spotlight despite the big number of headlines, comes first.
		Effenberg lives in Florida with his second wife Claudia (formerly married to Bayern Munich team-mate Thomas Strunz), with his ex-wife Martina and their children close by as well.

	Stefan Effenberg
		The name Stefan Effenberg is synonymous with one of the most glorious periods in the club's history as this natural leader strode the international stage.
		Midfielder Stefan Effenberg, a natural-born leader if ever there was one, possessed an extraordinary ability to drive and inspire his team-mates in the most tense and challenging circumstances.
		"Stefan has been outstanding in the four seasons he's spent with us, it's been one of the most successful periods in Bayern's history, and a lot of it is down to him," President Franz Beckenbauer said as he bade farewell to the team captain.

		STEFAN EFFENBERG does not always have to open his mouth to get his point across, but when he does it is advisable to listen.
		Effenberg, now 34, is supposedly winding down his career with Wolfsburg, but the German is the kind of man who can display burning intensity when simply eating his breakfast.
		Effenberg last talked to his former national team coach Òmaybe three, four, five years agoÓ, and his words betray more grudging respect than personal warmth Ð even though those eyes seem to sparkle at the mention perhaps of a kindred spirit in Vogts' assistant Rainer Bonhof.
