Gerhard Müller

In his youth, Gerd Müller had to work hard to earn a living. Thanks to hard work and love for sports, the footballer managed to make a brilliant career and become the nation's top scorer.

Gerhard (Gerd) Müller was born on November 3, 1945 in Nördlingen, Germany. He was the youngest child in a large family.

The boy began to get involved in football as a child. He played with other guys on the streets of the city and dreamed of a professional career in sports. But Gerd did not dare to come to the coach of the TSV 1861 club for a long time because of his shyness. Only at the age of 12 did he join the team, where he showed good results.

Müller grew up in a modest family, which after the death of his father was left without a livelihood. The boy had to drop out after high school and find a part-time job, he started as a shift worker in a factory and at the same time mastered the profession of a welder. At the same time, the young man did not give up the hope of conquering sports peaks, he trained hard and kept himself in shape - with a height of 176 cm he weighed 77 kg.

In 1967, Gerd married a girl named Ursula. Soon they had a daughter, Nicole, who gave the celebrity grandson Mick. Nothing is known about other details of his personal life.

Gerd's hard work and dedication bore fruit - he became the best player in his TSV 1861 team. The guy seemed to intuitively knew where the ball would be in the next moment, and easily scored goals. Soon representatives of "Munich-1860" and "Bavaria" became interested in him. The latter turned out to be more agile and were able to get a talented football player. Legend has it that Bayern's representatives knocked on Muller's house just an hour earlier than their competitors and signed a contract with him. Another version says that the club was chosen by the mother of the famous striker.

However, after the conclusion of the contract, the difficulties in the biography of the future star did not stop. The novice footballer was paid a modest salary, even for those times, because of which he was forced to work as a loader. It was only when the team moved from the regional to the Bundesliga that Müller was able to give up the extra workload and devote himself to sports.

During the game for Bayern, Gerd brought the club many victories and titles. The team won the European Cup and the German Cup, and the athlete himself became popular in football. He has repeatedly participated in matches for the FRG national team, was awarded the titles of world champion and European champion. Müller holds a record with 365 goals in 427 matches in the Bundesliga. In 2004, thanks to his achievements, the man entered the list of the 100 best FIFA players.

However, due to a conflict with the coach, the champion decided to say goodbye to the club. After leaving Bayern, the footballer went to New York, where he joined the Fort Lauderdale Strikers, whose famous representatives are Franz Beckenbauer and George Best.

As a striker, Gerd scored 38 goals in 71 games and went home to continue training with the TSV 1860. He planned to stay with the German club, but the transition failed due to the high demands of the American company. The man had to continue playing for the Strikers, but at the age of 28 he announced his retirement.

By this time, the player's name was known all over the world, he was called "the nation's scorer", so any club was happy to hire him as a coach. Gerd chose to stay in Fort Lauderdale and trained for a while with the amateur Smith Brothers Lounge team. Later, the man discovered an entrepreneurial streak and opened a steakhouse. In 2019, the institution still kept memorable photos of the famous football player.

Despite his success and a stable financial position, Müller felt uncomfortable as the owner of the establishment and yearned for football. This led to alcohol addiction, which his friends helped him to cope with, advising Gerd to be a coach at Bayern Munich. Another famous athlete and namesake Thomas Müller worked under his leadership.

In 2014, a man had to quit his job due to Alzheimer's.

Now the former athlete is in a nursing home. He does not use social networks and does not go to Instagram.
