Genius of sports medicine for some, controversial guru for others, Hans-Wilhelm Müller-Wohlfahrt leaves Bayern Munich after four decades caring for his stars. The 77-year-old doctor only left the activity after a conflict in 2008 with Jürgen Klinsmann in 2008 and another with Pep Guardiola in 2015.
Müller-Wohlfahrt will now focus on his private practice and a project to prevent muscle injury with the help of artificial intelligence. Karl-Heinz Rummenigge , president of Bayern, underlined the "excellent work" of his doctor during these 40 years. "From Franz Beckenbauer and Gerd Müller , through Klaus Augenthaler and Bastian Schweinsteiger to Thomas Müller and Robert Lewandowski, they are indebted to him," said Rummenigge.
However, "Müll's" portfolio of patients, as he was known in the world, also included Paula Radcliffe , Boris Becker or Usain Bolt , who spoke of him as his "second father". "What impresses me most about him is his ability to formulate a diagnosis right from the first examination, before resorting to modern X-rays and MRIs. He does this with his hands, which must have something magical," said the German coach. , Joachim Löw , after his collaboration at the Mannschaft , where the doctor worked between 1995 and 2018.
"Happy and very satisfied"
His attachment to natural medicine, with as few chemical agents as possible, earned him the rejection of his colleagues for a long time. His intensive use of Actovegin, a calf blood-based acid, which he administered in intramuscular infiltrations, also led to accusations of being a quack.
"When I review my 40 years at Bayern, I feel happy and very satisfied. The experiences we have shared, the successes we celebrate together and especially all the people I have met at this club have strongly marked my life," he said. Müller-Wohlfahrt.
The footballers of the current Bundesliga leader and finalist of the German Cup will now be attended by two doctors who were already part of the team led by Müller-Wohlfahrt.
