Klinsmann suggests Mueller should embark on the "USA Journey"; Hoeness expresses opposition - Commission tasked to develop regulations addressing worker radiation exposure risks.
Thomas Müller's tenure at Bayern Munich has come to an end, and the German football icon is reportedly on the verge of a new adventure in the United States. Major League Soccer (MLS) club Los Angeles FC (LAFC) has shown strong interest in signing Müller, with recent reports indicating that the situation is progressing positively for a transfer to LAFC.
Uli Hoeneß, Bayern Munich's honorary president, has expressed some skepticism about Müller's potential move to Los Angeles, but sources close to the negotiations suggest that the deal is moving forward. The club gained financial flexibility following the sale of Olivier Giroud, which allows them to offer Müller a competitive salary, reportedly around €4 million annually under the MLS "Designated Player Rule." Adidas has also reportedly been involved to help make the deal happen.
LAFC remains the primary club showing serious interest, although other MLS clubs like Inter Miami and FC Cincinnati have been linked with Müller. However, Philadelphia Union rejected an approach due to financial concerns over Müller's salary demands, which reportedly were between $8 and $10 million annually, which is beyond the Union's usual budget.
Jürgen Klinsmann, a former national coach and Bayern Munich head coach, advises Müller to consider a move to the USA. Klinsmann, who found Müller during his brief stint with Bayern Munich in the 2008/09 season, believes that Müller would enjoy playing in Los Angeles and has praised the potential impact he could have on soccer in the USA.
Thomas Müller has played for Bayern Munich for 25 years and 756 competitive games, making him one of the club's most decorated players. However, his last game in a Bayern Munich jersey was a quarterfinal loss in the Club World Cup against Paris Saint-Germain (0:2). Müller has not commented on his future after his last game in a Bayern jersey, but it seems that a move to LAFC is imminent.
Meanwhile, Bayern Munich's sporting director Max Eberl has not commented on a potential contract extension with Müller, and Uli Hoeneß suggests that it would be better for Müller to retire, but if he chooses to move to the USA, Hoeneß supports his decision.
Intriguingly, Lionel Messi is under contract with Inter Miami, and Marco Reus is scoring goals for the reigning champions Los Angeles Galaxy. With Müller's potential move to the USA, the MLS is set to attract yet another world-class player, further boosting the league's profile and appeal.
As Müller prepares to embark on a new chapter in his career, fans and pundits alike eagerly await the official announcement of his move to LAFC. Stay tuned for updates on this developing story.
The Commission, with its proposal for a directive on the protection of workers from ionizing radiation, seems to be a stark contrast to the exciting developments in the world of sports, particularly the soccer scene, as Thomas Müller's potential move to Major League Soccer (MLS) club Los Angeles FC (LAFC) progresses. Jürgen Klinsmann, a former coach of both the German national team and Bayern Munich, has expressed his belief that Müller would positively impact soccer in the United States, should he choose to join LAFC.
