The royal title of King Kahn was fitting for the formidable stature of Oliver Kahn, the German goalkeeper who finished a distinguished career when he retired in 2008. He made his professional debut in 1987, and it wasn't long before he established himself as a quality keeper, possessing an uncanny ability to save penalty kicks, and his imposing frame and style of play intimidated opposing forwards. By the end of the 9898 season, he was considered the best goalkeeper in the Bundersleague.
