C1, Muller enters a very closed circle!

But where will Thomas Muller stop? This Tuesday evening, the German attacking midfielder stood out during Bayern Munich’s victory against Shakhtar Donetsk (5-1 victory).

The German world champion scored the second of the game on a serve from Jamal Musiala. An achievement which allows him entry into a very closed circle in the Champions League.

Indeed, the German striker scored his 246th goal in 727 matches with Bayern Munich since 2008. A first goal of the season in C1 which allows him to join a very closed circle of scorers because he has now scored in 16 distinct seasons in C1 and equals Cristiano Ronaldo.

Only Lionel Messi and Karim Benzema do better, scoring for 18 seasons.

The German number 25 under contract with the Bavarian club until June 2025 will perhaps no longer have the opportunity to compete in the most prestigious club competition next season. Unless there is a contract extension in the coming weeks. To be continued…
