[Saba Sports News] According to German media reports, Bayern Munich star Thomas Muller has moved to the American league (MLS). While it was widely assumed that his brother, Simon Muller, would follow, surprisingly, Simon did not move to the US. Instead, he remains at Bayern Munich in his role as Head of Fan Affairs, responsible for coordinating activities like TIFO displays. This decision stems not only from the family’s deep ties to Bayern but also demonstrates his dedication to promoting football culture. It is reported that Simon grew up in a family loyal to Bayern and has loved football since childhood, still playing for his hometown club in Pahl in his spare time. He has been employed by Bayern Munich since October 2015 and is currently the Head of Fan Affairs. His main responsibilities include liaison with fans for the first team’s home and away matches, fan engagement for the women’s team, and coordinating the famous TIFO displays at the Allianz Arena. In 2011, he facilitated a friendly match between Bayern and Pahl, with the proceeds going towards the construction of a sports hall in his hometown; the brothers playing on the same field became a celebrated story.
