New Delhi:<\/strong> India is fast becoming a destination for international football clubs and their leading stars are equally excited about playing in front of a billion and more people. Thomas Mueller, the winner of the \u2018Golden Boot\u2019 at the 2010 FIFA Wold Cup, is thrilled to be leading a bevy of stars from FC Bayern Munich to play against the Indian National Team at the Audi Football Summit, to be held in New Delhi on January 10, 2012.\u00a0 This will be Muller\u2019s second trip to India, and he\u2019s \u201chappy that more and more kids are playing the game in India\u201d.<\/p>\n

Talking about his forthcoming trip, the German star said, \u201cI am happy to come back after the visit to Kolkata and Siliguri in January 2009.\u201d\u00a0 Mueller, also the \u2018Best Young Player\u2019 at the previous World Cup, sought to motivate young Indian footballers by saying, \u201cFootball is the best team sport in the world.\u201d <\/p>\n

Mueller\u2019s team-mate at FC Bayern Munich, star striker Mario Gomez said that the entire team was looking forward to the Audi Football Summit. Gomez about whom Ottmar Hitzfeld said, was as important to Bayern Munich as Lionel Messi is to Barcelona, had joined the German champion for a record transfer fee. The striker said, \u201cThe trip to India will be a big experience for us, as most of us have not been to India.<\/p>\n

German great Karl-Heinz Rummenigge, who had his greatest career success with Bayern Munich and was honored twice as \u2018European Footballer of the Year\u2019, said the club was happy was send their full first team to the Audi Football Summit. \u201cI have heard about the great experiences from our players and coaches when they traveled for Oliver Kahn\u2019s farewell match. We are now delighted to bring the full first team to India. Many of us are excited about the country, the city of Delhi, the people and their enthusiasm for football,\u201d said Rummenigge, who is currently the CEO of FC Bayern Munich AG.<\/p>\n

Josef Jupp Heynckes, the coach of FC Bayern Munich, said, he would like to utilize the opportunity to the hilt at the Audi Football Summit. \u201cWe are coming to India after a week long training camp in Qatar. We will want to show quality football and want to present ourselves in the best possible manner. Naturally, I would like to utilize the opportunity to learn more about Indian football. I really look forward to it,\u201d said Heynckes, who belonged to the German national squad that won the World Cup and European Championship in the early 1970s.<\/p>\n
