Thomas Müller is among the latest soccer legends to move to MLS in the twilight of his career, joining Vancouver Whitecaps FC.
Upon arrival to MLS, Müller scored his first goal for the Whitecaps in his first start. The Germany and Bayern Munich legend has looked in fine form and he’s also already issued a warning to the league’s biggest star: Lionel Messi.
Speaking in an interview with MLS, Müller reflected on his past matchups against Messi, saying he didn’t know the exact reason for his success against him. Then, he couldn’t contain himself sending a hilarious warning.
“I will hunt you again,” he grinned.
Müller has emerged victorious in seven out of eight official meetings with Messi. Some iconic victories include Germany’s win against Argentina in the 2014 FIFA World Cup final and Bayern Munich’s merciless 8–2 pummeling of Barcelona in the 2019–20 Champions League quarterfinals.
Yet, Müller is still full of praise for Messi, even saying he’s grown to consider him the greatest player of all time.
