  • At Bayer 04 Leverkusen , Daum ran over broken glass with his players. He wanted to make it clear that "intellectual powers" also play a decisive role in football.

engagement

Cocaine affair

In one of the biggest scandals in the history of German football Christoph Daum was then coach of Bayer 04 Leverkusen and designated national coach of the German national football team , in October 2000, the consumption of cocaine detected. The affair was initiated by an interview that Uli Hoeneß gave to the Munich tabloid Abendzeitung in autumn 2000. "The DFB can't start a ' Don't take drugs ' campaign and Herr Daum may have something to do with it," said Hoeneß. In this context, the words "sniffy thumb" were also used. Daum, who had initially filed a defamation suit against Hoeneß and publicly asserted his innocence several times, was finally forced, under increasing public pressure, to allow a forensic analysis of a sample of his hair for drug residues. At a press conference previously called on October 9, 2000, Daum explained this voluntary hair test and said:

"I do this because I have an absolutely clear conscience."

- Christoph Daum

The positive result of the Institute for Forensic Medicine at the University of Cologne exposed Daum as a liar. After the result of the hair analysis was communicated to him on October 20, 2000 and cocaine consumption was proven, Daum was dismissed as club coach without notice, and his contract as national coach of the German national soccer team, which had been running from June 1, 2001, was terminated by the DFB.

Daum then left Germany and spent two and a half months in Florida . On January 12, 2001, one day after his return to Germany, Daum first admitted cocaine use at a press conference in Cologne. He took this "occasionally in the private sector". But there could be no question of addiction or disease. In the meantime, he has "no longer had contact with drugs" and no longer uses cocaine, said Daum. He did not want to call his behavior a minor offense and was "aware of the scope of the mistake".

During his trip to the USA, Daum found that he had not flown to the USA to escape, but to gain distance. He tried to come to terms with himself and has now drawn a line. "I am ready to take responsibility, my behavior was wrong". The later legal proceedings before the Koblenz regional court for acquiring and inciting to trade in cocaine against Daum were discontinued subject to the payment of a sum of 10,000 euros.
