Reports: Müller talking with MLS's Vancouver Whitecaps

Müller's Next Chapter: Hollywood or Hockey?

Bundesliga Legend Mulling Move to MLS

Thomas Müller, after a legendary 25-year run with Bayern Munich, is reportedly set to continue his football career in the United States. While initial reports pointed to Los Angeles FC as the frontrunner, German tabloid Bild now claims that negotiations are down to the wire between Müller and Vancouver Whitecaps. Sources close to the deal indicate final details are being ironed out, citing British sports journalist Ben Jacobs' reporting.

Cowboy Capers and Across the Pond:

Müller himself fueled speculation on Saturday with a captivating video showcasing a Wild West theme complete with horseback riding and country music. In the clip, he states, "Twenty-five years at Bayern. Every day was great. Even if it's over now... Today is Saturday, tomorrow is Sunday and the day after tomorrow is Monday – and then suddenly it's all over. Then it's off across the pond."

While the destination remains unclear, the video strongly suggests a move to North America.

Whitecaps or FC Cincinnati? The MLS Twist:

Vancouver Whitecaps sporting director Axel Schuster previously downplayed the possibility of Müller joining the club. However, MLS rules require Vancouver to formally purchase Müller's rights from league rivals Cincinnati, who hold the "Discovery Rights" for the German veteran and 2014 World Cup winner.
