You can always rely on Thomas Müller. He has scored a total of 242 goals for FC Bayern in the Bundesliga, the DFB Cup and the Champions League.
Müller has also been a constant in the German national team for years: 45 goals in 130 international matches are proof of this. He scored 10 goals at his four World Cups alone – and even became top scorer at his first World Cup in 2010.
But there is one competition where Thomas Müller has yet to score: At the European Championship.
It’s hard to believe: in his 16 European Championship games to date, which he has played in 2012, 2016, 2021 and 2024, Müller has yet to score any European Championship goals. Zero
“Goals are not my fuel – rather the special paint “
It’s not as if Thomas Müller has been short on goals in his three European Championship finals so far. He has been in the starting line-up for 12 of his 16 European Championship matches – and played eleven of them.
However, Müller has also been rather unlucky so far. At EURO 2016, he hit the post once, the crossbar once and even missed a penalty. More bad luck is almost impossible.
But what is almost more surprising given Müller’s European Championship slump: In his 16 European Championship games, Müller has only scored two goals.
Yet Müller is considered a reliable provider of goals. In his entire Bundesliga career alone, he has set up a total of 268 goals.
However, Müller gives little or no thought to his scoreless streak at European championships. His zero-goal record doesn’t faze him at all.
Back in 2016, when asked when his European Championship knot would burst, he replied: “Goals are not my fuel, rather the special paint that looks good on the outside My drive is to achieve great things with the team.”
This is precisely why Müller was called up to the Germany EURO 2024 squad by national coach Julian Nagelsmann. Just like at Bayern, he should lead and drive his team-mates – and ideally serve his teammates with perfect assists.
Thomas Müller European Championship goals: How often will he score in 2024?
Now German soccer fans in particular are asking themselves the question: How many Thomas Müller goals will there be at Euro 2024?
The best EURO betting providers had a special Thomas Müller EURO bet ready before the start of the tournament:
Will there be over 1.5 Müller goals at EURO 2024? This refers to whether there will be more or less than two goals at the home European Championship.
In addition, top bookmaker Bet365 also offers Müller Euro bets on whether he will be Germany’s top scorer in the tournament. However, he is only the clear outsider.
The chances of Müller scoring European Championship goals are limited, as the Bayern veteran is not only in the starting line-up and is only a substitute in the DFB team. However, Müller is always good for a goal, even if he is substituted
