Muller has been with Bayern for 20 years, winning eight German titles and the 2013 Champions League, and marked his 500th senior game for the club in November.

Bayern coach Hansi Flick signed an extension through 2023 four days earlier.

Muller hasn't represented the German national team since coach Joachim Low said in March 2019 that Muller was no longer in his plans.
