Christian Müller (born March 1, 1982 ) is a former German racing cyclist .

Christian Müller became German champion in team pursuit in 2001 and German U23 champion in road racing in 2003 . A year later he won the time trial of the German U23 championship and won in the same category at the European championship.

In 2005 Müller received a contract from Bjarne Riis with the Danish ProTeam CSC . He celebrated his international elite victory on the last stage of the Saxony Tour in Dresden. He also won a stage at the Tour de l'Avenir .

For the 2007 season, Müller moved to the Dutch Professional Continental Team Skil-Shimano , which fired him in August 2007. The then 25-year-old from Erfurt did not appear in public in the way that the team's image would have, according to the management's justification. In 2008 Müller drove for the Irish Continental Team Murphy & Gunn-Newlyn-M. Donnelly-Sean Kelly and in 2009 for the team Amore e Vita, which was then licensed in the USA . However, these engagements were not to his satisfaction. In particular, he complained that after a broken collarbone in May 2009, the Amore e Vita team broke off contact and stopped paying salaries. After that, he no longer received a contract with an international cycling team .
