“I appreciate it a lot,” Müller said of the massive buzz surrounding his arrival. “The warm welcome yesterday at the airport, the warm welcome today.
“And I hope for a very warm welcome on Sunday in the stadium.”
Even though coach Jesper Sørensen didn’t say if Müller would play against Houston Dynamo FC on Sunday, the Whitecaps’ most significant signing ever hinted that he’s ready to prove himself to the sold-out crowd at BC Place.

“I was always a competitive guy during my whole life, and my love is to play, to play soccer,” the veteran attacker said. “And my body feels, even in [this] stage of my career, too good to retire.”
Müller’s confidence is matched by his ambition for trophies, something the ‘raumdeuter’ has achieved consistently throughout his 17 years as a pro.
“I know that a player with my career coming to Vancouver [is] creating a little bit of a hype,” he said. “And we want to stay on the hype train as long as possible.”
