Germany forward Thomas Müller has announced his retirement from international football. He made the announcement on his X account Monday morning, posting a farewell message alongside a photo of himself in the national team jersey, holding Germany’s flag.
This announcement comes less than 24 hours after Spain won the Euro 2024 title with a 2-1 victory over England in the final. Müller’s final appearance for Germany was as a substitute in their Euro 2024 quarter-final loss to Spain, which saw Germany exit after extra time.
The 34-year-old concludes a distinguished 14-year international career with Germany. During his time with the national team, Müller earned 86 goal contributions in 131 caps and won the 2014 World Cup, where he also claimed the Golden Boot.
