Bayern Munich icon Thomas Muller's salary details playing in the Bundesliga
Thomas Muller might be on his way out of Bayern Munich at the end of the season, but the versatile attacker will forever be an absolute club legend.
Having risen through the ranks at Bayern, Muller made his first-team debut in 2008 and has been a loyal Bavarian ever since.
He will be moving on at the end of the 2024-25 campaign after Bayern opted against offering him a new deal, with his current terms maybe not quite matching up with his changed status and performances compared to his contributions during his prime.
But exactly how much does the former German international earn at the moment?

Top earners at Bayern Munich
Despite his high salary, Muller misses out on a place in the top five earners at the club as he currently ranks joint-seventh alongside Leroy Sane and Alphonso Davies.
Topping the wage bill is English striker Harry Kane, who has been in blazing form since his arrival at the club. Following him is the legendary figure of Manuel Neuer in second, with Joshua Kimmich in third.
Meanwhile, in fourth and fifth place are the talented Jamal Musiala and former Arsenal player Serge Gnabry, with both players earning identical wages at Bayern.

Highest paid players in the world
Although Bundesliga players, specifically Bayern stars, earn huge sums of money playing in the league, they fail to make it onto the list of the top five highest-paid players in the world. The list is completely dominated by Saudi Pro League players, with arguably one of the greatest forwards to play the game, Cristiano Ronaldo, sitting at the top.
Meanwhile, his former Real Madrid team-mate Karim Benzema follows him in second place.
Moving on, Riyad Mahrez comes in at number three, followed by Senegalese internationals Sadio Mane and Kalidou Koulibaly.
