Marius Muller (30 years old) is transferring permanently from Schalke 04 to Wolfsburg. The amount of the operation, not officially communicated, is believed to be in the order of one million euros for the card.
Marius Müller, after a strong year at Schalke 04, is back in the Bundesliga. VfL Wolfsburg has provided the 30-year-old with a contract on Tuesday. Wolfsburg is paying around one million euros to the Gelsenkircheners, with additional payments agreed upon. Wolfsburg didn't disclose the exact contract duration. Müller will start the season as number 2. Müller, originally from FC Luzern, joined the Knappen for 350,000 euros in the 2022/23 season and quickly proved to be a reinforcement. Despite a long-term injury, he returned to the posts on the 20th matchday and played a decisive role in the relegation of the Royal Blues. Despite Schalke's efforts to extend his contract that was running until 2025, the offer fell short of the goalkeeper's expectations. As a result, he declined the contract extension and his transfer request was granted.
Marius Müller (30) is set to join Wolfsburg next season. The goalkeeper, who joined Schalke 04 from Luzern last season, was initially signed as a backup but ended up playing the entire season due to an injury to Ralf Fährmann. Despite becoming a fan favourite with his performances and clear communication on and off the pitch, Müller felt that Schalke 04 did not have plans for him moving forward. A contract extension offer with only slightly improved terms was seen as an affront by Müller. Instead, he expressed his desire to move, which was granted as the economic conditions were right.
Marius Müller has arrived in Wolfsburg, where he is undergoing his medical check on Tuesday. If everything goes well, he will sign his contract with VfL Wolfsburg. The cost is approximately one million euros, with possible additional payments agreed. Müller is the new number 2, completing the goalkeeper quartet.

Goalkeeper Marius Müller is moving from Schalke to Wolfsburg for a transfer fee of approximately 1.5 million Euros.
Müller has a contract until 2025 with Schalke 04. However, the management's current 'fire-everyone-and-everything' mood could see the goalkeeper cross the Emscher. No one is unsellable – this was made clear by CEO Matthias Tillmann. Wolfsburg is interested in the goalkeeper and would be willing to pay slightly more than 1 million euros in transfer fees. It was initially clear to Müller after the season that he wanted to stay at Schalke, but then things happened that turned his mood 180 degrees. The management is said to have made him an offer that, from his point of view, was a joke. The goalkeeper currently earns around 360,000 euros per season. The new offer is said to have been around 400,000 euros. New squad planner Ben Manga is said to have even sweetened the move to Wolfsburg in a personal conversation, pointing out more salary and better prospects – too much for Müller, who is disappointed by Royal Blue and no longer feels valued. According to BILD information, the topic of Schalke is definitely over for Müller – the fans will lose one of their absolute favorites.
Marius Müller has reportedly rejected an initial offer for an early contract extension, and Schalke 04 is preparing for his imminent departure. His goal could be a first-tier club. VfL Wolfsburg is heavily courting Müller, who, according to reports, can well imagine a personal promotion to a first-tier club. The sticking point is the transfer fee. According to kicker information, Schalke would like a sum in the seven-figure range - it is said that the expectations of both club sides are still far apart at the moment. If they do not converge in the next few weeks, S04 could insist on contract fulfillment, Müller would then be free of charge in 2025. The Gelsenkirchen had brought the ex-Lauterer from FC Luzern to the Pott a year ago, the change cost them 350,000 euros. A bargain, as it quickly turned out. With strong performances, Müller had kept FC Schalke 04 in the 2nd league. The new director of squad planning, Ben Manga, is fighting in the form of a contract offer including a salary increase for Müller, but knows that Wolfsburg's financially strong arguments stand against it. The keeper, who is hoping for one last big contract of his career, would earn more in Wolfsburg, and the opponents would be Bayer Leverkusen, FC Bayern, Borussia Dortmund and Co.
There were rumors about negotiations with Wolfsburg, which Müller denied. Schalke might try to keep him by offering him the number 1 jersey and making him captain next season.
