The duo Müller and Lewandowski terrified the Bundesliga for years.

This is ending now.

Munich – You have often looked for each other on the pitch and just as often found each other.

Thomas Müller and Robert Lewandowski have caused discomfort in the opposing defenses in the Bundesliga for the past eight years.

Assist Müller, Tor Lewandowski was then often in the match report of numerous FC Bayern games.

Müller needs a new attacking partner - Lewy is drawn to FC Barcelona

But that's over now!

The attacking duo 'Müller and Lewy' has had its day with the German record champions.

The main reason for this is the Polish striker, who is drawn to FC Barcelona in Spain.

After weeks of transfer theater, both clubs finally agreed on a change of striker last weekend.

The Catalans can look forward to goals from Lewandowski, while Bayern can look forward to princely financial compensation.

The transfer fee for the soon to be 34-year-old striker is probably around 45 million euros - if certain clauses apply, this sum can also increase to over 50 million euros.

Müller remembers his time with Lewandowski on social media

So all sides benefit from this transfer - only Müller has lost his congenial attacking partner, whom he has fed all too often with assists in the past.

To commemorate this special time, Müller published the following post on social media after the change became known: "All the best for your future @FCBarcelona, ​​@lewy_official!

8 special years, many goals, many trophies, ups and downs, but always respect and a real winning spirit!".

Incidentally, an ex-coach recently made an interesting comparison with Müller.

Logically, Müller, who appeared earlier than expected at the start of training, did not miss the opportunity to include a small gag in his post.

In one of the souvenir photos, the heads of Lewandowski and Müller are placed on the bodies of legendary basketball players Michael Jordan and Scottie Pippen.

The duo of Jordan and Pippen is undisputedly one of the most successful duos in the entire sporting world.

You might not want to go that far with Müller and Lewandowski - but both will surely go down in the history of the club as two Bayern legends.

Müller also seems to suspect this.

It is not for nothing that he provided his post with the hashtag "see you in a few years in a legend's jacket".
