Who is Gerd Müller?
Gerhard "Gerd" Müller is a retired German footballer. A prolific striker renowned for his clinical finishing, especially inside the penalty box, he is regarded as one of the greatest goalscorers of all time.
At international level with West Germany he scored 68 goals in 62 appearances, and at club level, after fifteen years with Bayern Munich, he scored a record 365 goals in 427 Bundesliga games and an international record of 66 goals in 74 European club games. Averaging more than a goal a game with West Germany, Müller is now eleventh on the list of all time international goalscorers despite playing fewer matches than every other player in the top 25. Among the top scorers only Poul Nielsen and Sándor Kocsis have higher scoring rates.
His nicknames are "Bomber der Nation" or simply "Der Bomber", and "kleines dickes Müller"
