Thomas Muller has extended his contract with FC Bayern Munich until 2024.
CEO of the club, Oliver Kahn stated that Muller is an icon who wears the club badge in his heart, and also an important character in the dressing room.
According to him, "Thomas Müller is an icon who wears the club badge in his heart. FC Bayern has always been characterised by continuity, and therefore we're pleased that we've managed to extend the contract of this important player. He's someone who assumes leadership and is also an important character in the dressing room with his personality."
Board member for sport, Hasan Salihamidzic said Muller and the club cannot be without each other, which is where the club was very happy that he extend his contract.
"You can't imagine Thomas Müller without FC Bayern - nor FC Bayern without Thomas Müller. That's why we're very happy that Thomas has extended his contract until summer 2024. Thomas is a leader who's hungry for success, and a role model on and off the pitch who embodies FC Bayern better than anyone," he said.
Muller stated that he is happy to extend, as the journey he has had with the club has been a fantastic successful story.
"I'm delighted to have extended my contact with FC Bayern Munich until 2024 today. The journey we've been on since I joined the FCB academy in 2000 has been a fantastic success story up to now. It gives me immense pleasure to hold up the red colours year after year, on and off the pitch - even if the wind blows in your face from time to time. So, let's keep going together!"
The 32-year-old attacker has been with the club since the age of 10, progressing through every age group before turning professional in 2008. Bayern's 10th successive Bundesliga title was his 11th in the red shirt - no other player in the history of the German top flight has lifted the shield more times.
