Career

[edit]

Early years

[edit]

Born in Gütersloh, Müller starting playing youth football for local amateur club Gütersloher TV, before joining Arminia Bielefeld's youth academy in 2011.[3] He made 26 appearance in the Under 17 Bundesliga and 20 appearances in the Under 19 Bundesliga for Die Arminen, scoring a total of two goals.[4] In 2019, he was promoted to the first-team squad competing in 2. Bundesliga and was immediately sent on a two-season loan to Regionalliga West side Wuppertaler SV.[5] As a first-team regular for this club, he was part of the team winning the Lower Rhine Cup in 2021.[6]

Schalke 04

[edit]

On 30 April 2021, Müller was announced as Schalke 04's new signing ahead of the 2021–22 season, joining their reserve team.[7] There, he grew into a starter for the team in Regionalliga West. As a result, he signed a contract extension with the club in June 2023, keeping him at Schalke until 2024.[8]

Müller made his first team debut for Schalke in the 2. Bundesliga in a 2–0 defeat against Holstein Kiel on 25 August 2023, coming on as a substitute in the 46th minute for Thomas Ouwejan.[9]

Roda JC

[edit]

On 30 January 2024, Müller signed a two-and-a-half-year contract with Dutch Eerste Divisie club Roda JC.[10][11] He made his debut for the club on 5 February, starting in a 1–0 away loss to Jong AZ.[12][13] In the following game on 9 February, Müller scored a brace after coming on as a late substitute, helping Roda to a 4–1 victory against Dordrecht.[14][15]

Style of play

[edit]

Müller is a versatile left-footer, capable of excelling both as a left-back and in midfield. His adaptability on the pitch allows him to seamlessly transition between defensive and more advanced roles. Wuppertaler SV's former sporting director, Karsten Hutwelker, envisioned Müller as a key player in central midfield, particularly in the role just in front of the defense. Later on, he transitioned to a left-back position, contributing with both goals and assists.[10][16]
