Bayern plan talks with 'one of a kind' Muller as Eberl proposes salary capShareThomas Muller could leave Bayern Munich after 17 years with their senior team, but the German giants are planning contract talks.Bayern Munich will soon hold talks with "one of a kind" forward Thomas Muller over a new contract, with his current deal set to expire at the end of the season.Speaking at a press conference to mark Bayern's 125th anniversary, sporting director Max Eberl also proposed the notion of a salary cap to curb wage inflation across Europe.Muller is one is several high-profile players who will be out of contract at the end of the season, alongside midfielder Joshua Kimmich, winger Leroy Sane and defender Eric Dier.Having come through the club's youth system, Muller has made 738 appearances for the club across all competitions, scoring 247 goals.He has won 32 trophies including two Champions League crowns and 12 Bundesliga titles with the Bavarian giants, but has only started 11 matches this season.Having played a diminished role this campaign, the 35-year-old has been touted for an exit, but Eberl says no decision has been made on his future."We will talk with Thomas, and then a decision will be made regarding the new season," Eberl said."Thomas is Bayern Munich, he's one of a kind. He lives for football and always wants to achieve everything."This week, reports suggested Bayern are now unlikely to offer a new contract to Kimmich due to his financial demands, and Eberl believes a salary cap in Europe's top leagues would be beneficial. "It's a political question, a difficult question," Eberl said. "How do you want to regulate a free market economy? Is that right?"I spoke to Gianni Infantino about whether there is a chance that FIFA will go along with it. I think we need FIFA at the top to find a solution."I'm always in favour of discussing, talking, and thinking. There are certainly topics that can be discussed. That should be part of a trial."Kimmich is sidelined with a hamstring issue and is likely to miss Friday's trip to Stuttgart, but head coach Vincent Kompany is confident other players will step up."We will solve it with our squad. I have total confidence in the boys who have to play. Joshua is not the first to drop out. Just like the others, hopefully he's not too long," he said."We have to solve this with the others who are 100%. We always showed a reaction when we had injured players in the squad. That's what we expect now."Playing away against last season's second-placed team is never easy. "We've focused entirely on this match and haven't taken a single step less in our preparation because this game is very important for us."With title rivals Bayer Leverkusen not travelling to Eintracht Frankfurt until Saturday, Bayern have an opportunity to move 11 points clear at the top of the Bundesliga.Bayern plan talks with 'one of a kind' Muller as Eberl proposes salary capThomas Muller could leave Bayern Munich after 17 years with their senior team, but the German giants are planning contract talks.Bayern Munich will soon hold talks with "one of a kind" forward Thomas Muller over a new contract, with his current deal set to expire at the end of the season.Speaking at a press conference to mark Bayern's 125th anniversary, sporting director Max Eberl also proposed the notion of a salary cap to curb wage inflation across Europe.Muller is one is several high-profile players who will be out of contract at the end of the season, alongside midfielder Joshua Kimmich, winger Leroy Sane and defender Eric Dier.Having come through the club's youth system, Muller has made 738 appearances for the club across all competitions, scoring 247 goals.He has won 32 trophies including two Champions League crowns and 12 Bundesliga titles with the Bavarian giants, but has only started 11 matches this season.Having played a diminished role this campaign, the 35-year-old has been touted for an exit, but Eberl says no decision has been made on his future."We will talk with Thomas, and then a decision will be made regarding the new season," Eberl said."Thomas is Bayern Munich, he's one of a kind.
