Andreas Müller (born December 13, 1962 in Stuttgart) is a former German footballer, who played mainly as a defensive midfielder.
[edit] Football career
Müller started his professional career at hometown's VfB Stuttgart, where he remained four seasons; in his first season, he netted five times in 20 league matches, helping the club clinch the title (with the title decided on goal difference, he found the net in consecutive 6-0 routings, against Fortuna Düsseldorf and at 1. FC Nuremberg, in April 1984).
After a sole year at Hannover 96, he transferred to FC Schalke 04, then in the second division. During the following 12 years (11 of those as a regular first-team member), Müller helped the side win the 1996-97 UEFA Cup (appearing in 11 matches during the victorious campaign), and eventually retiring almost at 38.
In 1991, Müller won the "Goal of the Year" award, and amassed 338 topflight matches, with 32 goals. Between May 2006 and March 2009, after having started as Director of Football,[1] he served as Schalke's general manager.[2][3]
