On July 6th, in the quarter-finals of the European Championship, Germany were eliminated from the tournament after losing 1-2 to Spain. After the game, German international Thomas Müller hinted that his international career might be over.
Müller said after the match: “This match could be my last for the national team. I am proud to be a part of this team, thank you to all the fans who cheered for us. We’ve had a great tournament, let’s continue this feeling.”
Müller has served Germany diligently for years. He has played 131 times for the German machine, contributing 45 goals and 41 assists, which is quite impressive. He also helped the team win the 2014 World Cup.
With Germany’s elimination from this European Championship, the team’s veterans have been retiring one after another. Kroos has announced his retirement, and Müller has also shown signs of retiring from the national team. In the World Cup in Mexico, Canada and the US in two years, the German team may undergo major changes, with younger players potentially taking over completely.
