The 35-year-old was on loan to the Royal Blues from 1.FC Heidenheim in the second half of last season and made good impression.

A permanent signing for the experienced shot-stopper is expected to be finalized by the Gelsenkirchen side in the coming weeks.

Given his contract runs until 2027 and Müller's standing after eleven years at Heidenheim, no difficult negotiations over a fee are anticipated.

During his loan stint with the newly promoted club, Müller featured on four occasions and managed to keep one clean sheet.
