😳 Müller slams soaring transfer fees, calls Neymar's price surreal
Bayern Munich continues to prepare for the match against PSG, next Saturday (5), in Atlanta, at 1 PM (Brasília time), for the quarter-finals of the FIFA Club World Cup. But the Bavarians are also in the market looking for reinforcements for the 2025/26 season. Advertisement And Thomas Müller, a Bayern idol who is bidding farewell to the club after 25 years, criticized the high amounts involved in negotiations between clubs in recent years. 📸 Alexander Hassenstein - 2024 Getty Images The 35-year-old midfielder even mentioned the Brazilian Neymar to criticize the transfer of Florian Wirtz from Bayer Leverkusen to Liverpool for 150 million euros (about R$ 966.4 million). "What are 150 million? It's surreal. It's just a number between clubs. Who can imagine what 150 million means? You can't have Neymar, but you can plant many trees with it. How can you assess what 150 million means? You can't get good things with 150 million, but you can get very good things, and even many of them," Müller told the channel CBS. Advertisement No club in England has paid more than what Liverpool will spend on Wirtz in the history of football in the country. Neymar, in turn, remains the most expensive transfer in world football when, in 2017, PSG paid 222 million euros to take him from Barcelona.

Müller believes Wirtz will be successful at new club Liverpool
Munich's Thomas Mueller warms up before the start of FIFA Club World Cup round of 16 soccer match between CR Flamengo and Bayern Munich at the Hard Rock Stadium. Sven Hoppe/dpa Thomas Müller believes that Florian Wirtz will have a successful time at Liverpool after his move from Bayer Leverkusen. "I think Florian will fit in anywhere. He's not only a very good footballer, but also mentally very strong," the Bayern Munich veteran told broadcasters CBS in an interview. Advertisement Liverpool brought in Wirtz on a club-record signing that could reach €150 million ($176.65 million) with add-ons. Müller doesn't believe that the sum will have a decisive influence on Wirtz's performance on the pitch. "In the end, we're used to dealing with it. The expectations are so high anyway," he said. However, the 35-year-old, who is leaving Bayern after the Club World Cup, questioned such astronomical transfer sums. "What's €150 million? That's already unreal. It's just a figure between clubs. Who can feel what €150 million means? You can't get Neymar, but you can plant a lot of trees with it. How can you judge what €150 million is?" he said. Müller will leave Bayern after 25 years of service as his contract expires this summer and he wasn't offered a new deal. It's still unclear what he will do in the future.
