Thomas Muller will leave Bayern Munich after 25 years on the Bundesliga giant when his contract expires this summer.
The 35 -year -old midfielder joined the Bayern ranks in 2000 before debuting in 2008, where he would start a career that would see him to last for 17 years in the club, with 743 performances and scoring 247 goals.
Muller also won 33 awards in Bayern, including 12 Bundesliga titles, most of the player in the German best flight and two champions.
Muller’s agreement in his club Boyhood, the winner of the World Cup with Germany in 2014, was to expire this summer after he made an annual extension in December 2023.
Muller has played a large extent for Bayern since he signed his new agreement, to a large extent, but even though he would like to stay, the club claims that both sides have come to a “mutual solution” that will see him to end his charm in Bavaria.

In a letter to Bayern fans on the social media, Muller said, “Even after all these years, regardless of the minutes I play, I still really enjoy being on the pitch with boys and fighting for titles together for our team. I could easily imagine this role next year.
“However, the club consciously decided not to negotiate a new contract with me for the next season. Although it was not in line with my personal wishes, it is important that the club follows its beliefs. I respect this step that the Council and Supervisory Board certainly did not take.”

“Now we want to cooperate to ensure that this incredible career is crowned hopefully three more trophies. There are few players that fans are still in their career. Thomas Müller will be one of them.”
