Raimond Aumann (born 12 October 1963 in Augsburg (District Oberhausen), West Germany) was a German footballer. His nickname is Balu (Germanized version of Baloo the bear in the Jungle Book).

He was a goalkeeper in the Bundesliga between 1982 and 1994. The first two years he was only reserve keeper of Bayern Munich (first choice was Jean-Marie Pfaff).
