THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>“Perhaps we can start a small football hype train, also with a view to the 2026 World Cup,” Muller wrote in his personal news letter. “I find the American venue particularly exciting...a lot of potential in US soccer. Let’s see how that feels."</p><p>Muller has also expressed excitement about other elements of Club World Cup: "The match against Boca Juniors in Miami will definitely be a highlight.</p><p>"As a European footballer, you don't usually get to play such traditional clubs. That makes a footballer's heartbeat faster."</p>

WHAT MULLER SAID

<p>While Muller's next club remains unconfirmed, <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/thomas-muller-undecided-on-future-final-bayern-munich-amid-mls-germany-legend/blt92e7e250bb0ac450" target="_self">all signs suggest his post-Bayern chapter could begin outside Europe.</a> His growing admiration for football in the United States and excitement about the Club World Cup hint at a deeper interest in the American game. Before any future decision is made, Muller will attempt to win another trophy with Bayern at the Club World Cup, whoch begins on June 15.</p>
