Thomas Müller scored another milestone in his career by playing in his 500th Bundesliga game, bringing FC Bayern one step closer to the title. As he prepares to say goodbye at the end of the season, there's one aspect of his final chapter at the club he's sure to miss: the electrifying energy of the Allianz Arena.
In a lighthearted chat with teammate Serge Gnabry, Müller - due to leave the team after the season - debunked the hype around the milestone. "Age and milestones go hand in hand, at least for me," he told Sky, chuckling. "I remember seeing myself almost au naturel, adorned with a Bavarian gingerbread heart, and the number 500 was already on it."
With the Allianz Arena standing as his last home turf, Müller shared his feelings of anticipation. "A couple of weeks from now, it's going to be my final home game. I'm not going to get mushy or teary-eyed, but it's still a bit strange," he admitted. "After all, I've played close to 500 games here, and there were plenty of home matches I cherished."
Gnabry, who passed the microphone to Müller during the interview, joked, "You're doing great," to which Müller quipped, "Thanks a lot!" As the team braces for their final games to secure the 13th title, Müller remains optimistic but realistic. "If I had to bet, yes," he reported.
Müller's rich history and achievements with FC Bayern, coupled with the vibrant atmosphere of the Allianz Arena, make it apparent that he values the unique bond he shares with the Munich crowd. From unforgettable cheers to heartfelt support, the electric energy of home matches is something Müller will likely treasure in the years to come. And as the countdown to his departure begins, it's evident that the Bavarian faithful will miss their masterful maestro.
