Short answers, pulled from the story.
Gerd Müller scored 68 goals in 62 appearances for West Germany, averaging more than one goal per game across his international career from 1966 to 1974. He held Germany's all-time scoring record for almost 40 years until Miroslav Klose surpassed him in 2014.
Gerd Müller scored 365 goals in 427 Bundesliga matches across his 15 seasons at Bayern Munich, a record that still stands. His single-season record of 40 goals in 1971-72 was held for nearly fifty years before Robert Lewandowski scored 41 in the 2020-21 season.
Müller won the Ballon d'Or in 1970, the FIFA World Cup in 1974, the UEFA European Championship in 1972, and three consecutive European Cup titles with Bayern Munich in 1973-74, 1974-75, and 1975-76. He also won four Bundesliga titles, four DFB-Pokal titles, and the European Golden Shoe twice.
Gerd Müller scored 14 goals across two World Cups - ten at the 1970 tournament and four at the 1974 tournament - and held the all-time World Cup goals record for 32 years. Brazil's Ronaldo broke the record at the 2006 World Cup, requiring more matches than Müller had played.
Müller said he had decided to retire from international football before the 1974 World Cup final even ended. There was also a dispute at the post-tournament celebration where officials' wives were permitted to attend but players' wives were not, though Müller maintained the decision was already made.
After retiring in 1981, Müller struggled with alcoholism before former Bayern Munich companions convinced him to seek rehabilitation. He then worked as a coach at Bayern Munich II from 1992 until 2014. He was diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease in October 2015 and died on the 15th of August 2021 in Wolfratshausen, aged 75.
