The German midfielder, Thomas Muller, has been the star player for Bayern Munich in recent years, but one man who has had a significant impact on his development is the legendary Argentine forward, Lionel Messi.
Muller began his career with Eintracht Frankfurt before moving to Bayern Munich in 2011. He quickly established himself as one of the best midfielders in the world, and he was named Bundesliga Player of the Year in 2014.
One of the highlights of Muller's time at Bayern Munich was his partnership with Messi. The two players formed a formidable duo that helped Bayern win four consecutive Bundesliga titles from 2013-2016. They were able to create scoring opportunities for each other and work together seamlessly on the field.
Muller also played a key role in helping Bayern overcome their Champions League final defeat against Barcelona in 2015. In that game, he scored the winning goal in extra time to help Bayern secure their first Champions League title since 2013.
Reflecting on his time at Bayern Munich, Muller said, "It's a special club and I'm very grateful for everything they've done for me. The fans are amazing and I have so many fond memories of my time there."
Overall, Muller's time at Bayern Munich was a golden era for him, and he will always be remembered as one of the greatest midfielders of all time.
