Bayern club president Herbert Hainer praised Muller, calling him “a legend while still playing”. “His career is littered with records in the history books. FC Bayern has been shaped by many people, and there will never again be a player like Thomas Müller, added Hainer.
Muller said that he is happy to continue at Bayern. “It’s important to me to be a foundation and to help steer the team in the right direction. I want to excite our fans with goals, helping create goals, my love of the game, my passion for football – and hopefully with many more titles”, said the German.
