Gerd Müller celebrates his 75th birthday this Tuesday, November 3. The newspaper Bild has spoken with his wife Uschi Müller on the eve of such an important date for the German striker since Torpedo Müller has been suffering from Alzheimer's for some years now. “He was always a fighter, always brave, throughout his life. And he is now. Gerd is sleeping towards his end. It's calm and peaceful, and I don't think I have to suffer. I hope you cannot think about your destiny, it is a disease that deprives a person of their last dignity“, crude words those expressed by his wife of the day to day of her husband.

The illness of the Ballon d'Or in 1970 made Bayern Munich public for its 70th birthday. Since then he has lived in a nursing home where he has all the appropriate care to treat his illness. “I visit him every day and speak to him with clear and slow words,” his wife says in the German newspaper.
Torpedo Müller will go down in history as a goal predator. He scored 365 goals in 427 Bundesliga games. He won 3 European Cups (he was proclaimed 4 times the top scorer of the same). Further, He was the top scorer in the 1970 World Cup and the 1972 Euro. Lewandowski snatched the distinction of top scorer in the Bundesliga but your cap of 40 goals in a season is still in effect. A series of achievements that will always be remembered.
