May our deepest condolences go to the Beckenbauer family from the Chinaglia family.
Frantz was a very good friend and teammate to Giorgio and they respected each other mutually. Frantz wrote a beautiful obituary for Giorgio years ago.
I imagine them smiling and kicking the ball around with thousands of fans and past teammates surrounding them. Thank you for all you gave to the world and beyond.
