Thomas Muller’s MLS move in doubt? Serie A contract looms for Bayern Munich star as Premier League clubs evaluate options after shock exit
Thomas Muller has announced he will leave Bayern Munich at the end of the season on a free transfer, sparking interest from Premier League and Serie A clubs, with Fiorentina reportedly preparing an offer.
Thomas Muller has confirmed that he will leave Bayern Munich at the end of the season on a free transfer, sparking speculation about his next move. According to a recent report from BILD, Premier League and Serie A clubs are expected to express interest, with one Italian team reportedly preparing an offer for the veteran.
While the English clubs involved remain unnamed, Fiorentina is said to be the Serie A club targeting Muller for a summer free transfer.
MLS officials reportedly met in Chicago recently, where the potential signing of Muller was discussed. There is a consensus that bringing the 35-year-old to the league would enhance its reputation. However, Muller might opt to stay in Europe for another season or two, possibly turning down an offer from Los Angeles FC, who have been linked with him in recent weeks.
Turkey has also shown interest, with Fenerbahce, managed by Jose Mourinho, reportedly willing to offer Muller a free transfer deal this summer. The Turkish club is said to be considering a one-year contract with the option to extend for another year based on performance and mutual agreement.
Muller scored in Bayern Munich’s 2-1 defeat to Inter in the first leg of the Champions League quarter-finals last week. It’s anticipated that he will feature in the second leg at San Siro on Wednesday, potentially marking his final Champions League appearance for the Bavarians.
