A surprising twist! It’s not Kimmich… but another Bayern Munich star, known to have a strong connection with Hansi Flick, has recently been offered to Barcelona as a free agent!

Barcelona is gearing up for a challenging encounter as they face Real Betis tonight in the 31st round of La Liga. Under the leadership of new coach Hansi Flick, the Catalan giants are determined to secure a win that will help them preserve their lead at the top of the table ahead of their crucial Champions League showdown against Borussia Dortmund.

Currently, Barcelona sits atop the La Liga standings with 66 points—three points ahead of fierce rivals Real Madrid and seven clear of Atlético Madrid—making tonight’s game vital for maintaining their momentum.

Meanwhile, an interesting development has emerged off the pitch involving one of Bayern Munich’s most iconic players. According to reports from Spanish outlet El Nacional, Thomas Müller, a club legend at Bayern, has been offered to Barcelona on a free transfer. The veteran forward, whose contract expires on June 30, has not been presented with a renewal offer, unlike teammates Alphonso Davies and Joshua Kimmich.

This situation has fueled speculation that Bayern is prepared to part ways with Müller, potentially due to his reduced role under new manager Vincent Kompany and his significant wages.

Thomas Müller is a Bundesliga icon and the player with the most appearances in Bayern Munich’s history, surpassing club legends like Oliver Kahn, Gerd Müller, and Franz Beckenbauer. Despite his legendary status, the lack of playing time this season and no contract renewal suggests that his time at Bayern may be coming to an end.

Nevertheless, Müller has no plans to retire yet. He appears interested in exploring a new chapter in his career, possibly in Spain, with Barcelona emerging as a potential destination.

One key factor behind this potential move is Müller’s relationship with Hansi Flick, the coach who previously revitalized his career at Bayern. Flick would reportedly be open to reuniting with the experienced attacker, seeing him as a valuable addition who could bring leadership and depth to Barcelona’s front line.

However, the decision is not entirely in Flick’s hands. Club president Joan Laporta and sporting director Deco remain hesitant, concerned about Müller’s recent decline in performance.

Despite that, Flick’s influence might still pave the way for Müller to don the Barcelona shirt, especially if the club decides to prioritize experience and attacking versatility during the upcoming transfer window.
