The football club SC Freiburg has signed a new contract with Swiss international defender Thomas Müller, the team announced on Wednesday.

Müller, who was born in Switzerland but spent his entire career playing for Bayern Munich and Real Madrid, has been one of the most influential players in the Bundesliga since he joined the club in 2016.

The move comes after Müller had been out of action due to injuries, but the team's head coach Frank Schmid believes that he can still play at a high level.

"Thomas is a great player and we believe that he will be able to continue playing well," Schmid said.

Müller's signing marks the latest in a string of significant signings for SC Freiburg this season. The club has already made several key acquisitions, including striker Christian Pulisic and midfielder Kevin De Bruyne, who arrived from Manchester United.

The team also recently announced the signing of former Bayern Munich star Mats Hummels, who will join the club from Borussia Dortmund.

Overall, the signing of Thomas Müller is a significant development for SC Freiburg, as it shows the club's commitment to developing young talent and investing in their future. The club is hoping that this acquisition will help them compete more effectively in the upcoming seasons.
