According to fcbayern.com:
He helped shape the German national team for more than 14 years – now one of the greatest players in DFB history is saying goodbye: Thomas Müller announced his retirement from international football on Monday. “It always made me very proud to play for my country. We celebrated together and sometimes shed a tear together,” said the forward in a farewell video on YouTube. “When I had the privilege of making my first international appearance over 14 years ago, I would never have dreamed of all this. I would like to say thank you to all the fans and my Germany teammates for their support over the years. Take the enthusiasm and joy of this year’s EUROS with you.”
Müller made a total of 131 international appearances for Germany, making him the most-capped player in DFB history after Lothar Matthäus (150) and Miroslav Klose. With 45 international goals, the born-and-bred Bavarian is also seventh in the DFB’s all-time scoring list.
