Christopher Dom was a towering figure in German football during the 90s.
Under his management, Stuttgart won the Bundesliga title with astonishing momentum.
This shot Dom to fame.
In '96, he took over Bayer Leverkusen and built the Pharmacy into one of the most dominant teams in the Bundesliga at the time.
After the 2000 European Cup, Dom even came close to taking over the Germany National Team.
Just before he was to take charge of the Germany National Team, Bayern's general manager, Hennes, suddenly and publicly accused Dom of long-term drug use. Despite Dom's repeated denials, a hair test half a month later came back positive.
Dom resigned from Bayer Leverkusen and went to Turkey to manage Besiktas.
It wasn't until the end of November 2006 that he returned to Germany for his second stint managing Cologne.
With the full support of Cologne's general manager, Michael Meier, Dom initiated a series of sweeping reforms at the club.
