A Bayern Munich supporter in Bosnia lived up to his word after claiming he would walk to the Allianz Arena if his side won the Champions League, a 960km trek.

Vahid Cehaja vowed to walk from his hometown of Bugojno all the way to the Allianz Arena if his beloved Bayern Munich won the Champions League last season. And following their victory over Borussia Dortmund at Wembley, Cehaja stuck to his promise and made the journey on foot which took him through five different countries.

“In honour of the fifth title for Bayern, I went from Bugojno to Munich through five countries,” he told local press. “I wanted to show respect for those who have been around and won titles with Bayern.”
