FC Bayern returned home two days after the quarter-finals at the World Cup in the USA against Paris Saint-Germain and arrived in Munich. For club legend Thomas Müller, we went to Säbener Strasse one last time after landing.
Now the farewell is final! Thomas Müller paid a last visit to his years of sporty homeland on Monday and said goodbye to “his” training ground emotionally.
“Hi people! One last goodbye to my training ground! One last goodbye to my changing room! It was a pleasure, it was an honor to play for FC Bayern. Now it’s time to open a new chapter in my life,” said the 35-year-old in a video message on Instagram in English.
After almost 17 years as a professional of FC Bayern, Thomas Müller had no longer received a new contract with the German record champions and will now end his active career elsewhere. It is still unclear where it could drag the 2014 world champion. According to the matching media reports, the MLS club Los Angeles FC should be one of the favorites for a Müller obligation.
Müller became German champion 13 times with FC Bayern 13 times
“I am happy about what experiences I was able to do and how many great people I met in this soccer bubble. Now it’s time to say ‘goodby’. I wish you all the best!” Said Müller in his last video address in the direction of the Bayern fans from the training area, which was his sporty home for so many years.
Thomas Müller won the German championship 13 times in the FC Bayern jersey, twice the Champions League and six times the DFB Cup. In addition to Toni Kroos, he is considered the most successful player in German football history.
