Fiorentina, Muller temptation. Pradè tries again after Gomez and Ribery?

Florence, April 16, 2025 - At the moment it is an idea. A suggestion or little more. One of those things that people like Daniele Pradè, who has already dealt with certain types of footballers in his career. Thomas Müller , Fiorentina, a story to follow in the coming weeks. The German champion has already announced his farewell to Bayern Munich after sixteen seasons in the first team (twenty-five including the youth sector) and over thirty titles in the trophy cabinet. A story that has been talked about for a long time in Bavaria, with Bayern being clear with the player: no contract renewal this time. The story will therefore end in June even if according to the BILD The decision on Muller's future will come before the Club World Cup.

These are the days of chats, of first approaches. Of intermediaries who move to understand how and where to place a footballer with such an important past for the last contract of his career, now on the threshold of 37 years of age. There is strong talk of a move to MLS, Los Angeles FC. A question of partnership, of easy money to earn. But Thomas is probably not looking for a millionaire contract. Or rather, not only.

Hence the Fiorentina hypothesis (the purple club is not the only one, there is also talk of English and Turkish teams), which today in Italy has gathered some confirmation. And as we said at the beginning, there would be no need to be surprised. From Mario Gomez to Franck Ribery, Daniele Pradè has shown that he really likes certain types of footballers at the end of their careers. In reality Gomez was supposed to represent something completely different for Fiorentina's attack, but history tells of a regret as big as a thing. Fewer expectations on Ribery, some high-class numbers, a handful of goals and the feeling of having ended up in a Fiorentina team that wasn't particularly brilliant on a tactical level. Is the Viola DS thinking about a hat-trick? We'll see, the fact is that this evening Muller He is in Italy to play against Inter in the last Champions League edition of his Bavarian career. In the meantime, Fiorentina will try to understand above all the costs of an operation that would have very little of a future, but which would bring with it experience and charm.. In mid-April it is too early to draw conclusions. We record the rumors that have bounced from Germany and confirmed in Italy. An idea. A suggestion. Then we will see.
