LONG-TIME Philippine Azkals’ goalkeeper Ronald Muller is retiring.

Muller is leaving the national squad after playing 22 international games, mostly as an alternate to Neil Etheridge.

The Germany-born Muller made his debut with the country’s Under-23 side in the 2011 Southeast Asian Games five years ago.

After that, he  moved over to the men’s squad in the same year.

“A new experience gave me a chance to see a part of my roots, teammates became like brothers! We lost, fought and won together. I had a great time, I was and will be forever proud to played for this beautiful country,” Muller said in an Instagram post.

The 29-year-old Muller was originally in the 23 man line-up for their friendly with Malaysia.

But, he did not play when the Azkals clashed with Malaysia last night. 

 Muller will still be playing  for Ceres Negros FC, though, as they continue their run in the 2017 AFC Cup.

 With Muller’s departure, home grown goalie Patrick Deyto is set to get more exposure in future games here and abroad.
