In the Major League Soccer final, there will be a showdown between Thomas Müller and Lionel Messi. But right now there are slight worries about the German superstar.
Two days before the Major League Soccer final between the Vancouver Whitecaps and Inter Miami with Lionel Messi, there are slight worries about Thomas Müller. As reported by Bild , the 36-year-old missed the last training session on Wednesday before the Canadian team made their way to the final venue in Florida.
Müller is said to have been in the gym instead of on the pitch with his teammates. The long-time offensive player of FC Bayern is still struggling with problems in his rear thigh. Whether his participation on Saturday (8:30 pm CET) is at risk is not clear from the report.

Müller before dream final: “Job is not done”
Despite anxious glances at his physical condition, the 2014 World Champion is full of anticipation.
“What could be better than playing against the GOAT – and beating him?” Müller writes in his newsletter. At the same time, he emphasized: “We are playing against a team, not against a player.”
After the won semi-final against San Diego FC (3:1), Müller immediately realized: “Job is not done. One step is still missing,” said the veteran: “I liked that. That’s how I know it from FC Bayern – a semi-final is quite nice, but it’s logically always about the whole thing.”
As the biggest asset for the final, Müller emphasizes the mentality of the Whitecaps. “Comebacks in added time, won penalty shootouts – we have already experienced a lot together. The trust is not just talk – we have earned it,” says Müller.
