Thomas Müller: Farewell speech full of emotions and Ibiza stitch!

On May 28, 2025, FC Bayern Munich celebrated their championship at Marienplatz in Munich, where thousands of fans gathered to celebrate their players. During the emotional championship celebration, Thomas Müller gave a heartfelt farewell speech and announced “bad news” right at the beginning, pointing out that he had not prepared a joke. Müller sincerely thanked the fans for the “wonderful years” and called on the Bayern community to support the team and the club in the coming years.

In his speech, Müller emphasized that the players invest their “heart and soul” in the team and emphasized the importance of young, dynamic talents who know the value of FC Bayern. What was particularly notable was that he countered criticism of the Bayern players' controversial trip to Ibiza. Muller made it clear that the players were people too, joking about the trip while previously criticizing the negative coverage of the event. He noted that morale is important, but performance also counts, and urged other teams to follow an example to also achieve great success.

Celebrations at the town hall

The championship celebration attracted numerous supporters who had been waiting in front of Munich City Hall since Sunday morning, many of them wearing FC Bayern jerseys. From 2 p.m., the fans' eyes were directed to the balcony of the town hall, where at 2:15 p.m. the FC Bayern footballers appeared in dirndls with the championship trophy and DFB Cup, followed by Manuel Neuer, who entered the balcony at 2:24 p.m.

Thomas Müller was the last player to step onto the balcony at 2:40 p.m. and spoke about his last years at FC Bayern. He emphasized that he will not let himself be swallowed up by the earth and will continue to fight for the club. Uli Hoeneß, the club's honorary president, praised Müller for his immense importance for FC Bayern.

Future uncertain

With a swipe at the Ibiza trip, Müller also recalled the 4-0 win against Hoffenheim, which sparked huge applause from the fans. The celebration ended with Müller and Harry Kane singing together, enjoying the moment together. Müller hinted that this might not be his last appearance on the balcony, while his future at Bayern remains uncertain after a short break as he is due to take part in the Club World Cup from mid-June.

Overall, this celebration not only showed the club's successes, but also the strong connection between the players and the loyal fans of FC Bayern Munich. For many it was an emotional moment that Müller had a significant impact on with his words and gestures. However, a return to his roots could always be on the cards for Müller, as he himself noted.
