- Rapid Vienna approach Muller with higher salary than MLS
- Bayern legend reportedly earns €1.7m in American proposal
- Free transfer possible in coming days
According to a report from Mein Bezirk the Austrian club have made a surprise move to sign Bayern Munich icon. The الدوري الألماني legend has received an approach from the Vienna-based side, who are reportedly prepared to offer a higher salary than الدوري الأمريكي لكرة القدم clubs, with some Austrian sources claiming Rapid could table a deal worth up to €3 million per year. Muller is said to have been offered €1.7m annually by MLS suitors.
Muller, 35, has yet to confirm his future beyond Bayern, where he has spent his entire professional career. The attacker’s contract expires at the end of the month, and he will be available for a free transfer after that. While a switch to MLS appears more likely, Rapid’s interest adds a new twist, especially as they continue to search for a high-profile forward amid ongoing uncertainty in their pursuit of Marko Arnautovic.
Muller played over 700 matches for Bayern and won 33 major trophies, including 13 Bundesliga titles and two Champions League crowns. Despite reduced minutes last season, he featured in 49 matches, contributing eight goals and eight assists.
Muller will likely weigh his options in the coming days. While Rapid are pushing for a sensational move, the veteran attacker may favour a switch to the United States, but nothing is confirmed apart from the fact that he made his last appearance for the German club in the Club World Cup.
