Ribery was officially presented as a new Fiorentina player on Thursday (08/22/2019). He landed in Florence at no cost after spending 12 years with Bundesliga giants Bayern Munich.

Ribery has emerged as the most successful player in the German league. During his career, Ribery has won nine league titles, six DFB trophies, four German Super Cups and one Champions League title.
