Former Bayern Munich and World Cup winner Thomas Muller has signed with MLS side Vancouver Whitecaps for the rest of the season. The 35-year-old brings vast experience after 17 years and 33 trophies with Bayern, according to Associated Press.
Vancouver acquired his MLS rights from FC Cincinnati, and Muller is set to arrive next week. The club’s sporting director called the move “transformative” for the team and city.
Muller, who retired from international soccer last year, promised to give his all as he begins this new chapter in Vancouver. The Whitecaps currently sit second in the Western Conference standings, Associated Press reported.
