Muller expressed, “It’s clear that today is not like any other day for me. My 25 years as an FC Bayern Munich player will come to an end in the summer. It’s been an incredible journey, filled with unique experiences, great encounters, and unforgettable triumphs. I feel immense gratitude and joy for having had this career with my beloved club. The special bond with the club and our amazing fans will always stay with me. What I hope for as a farewell is clear: titles we can celebrate together and moments we’ll cherish for a long time.”
