With the VfB amateurs, Müller won the championship in the 1st Amateur League North Württemberg in 1970/71 and made it into the final in the competition for the German amateur championship. This was lost on July 10, 1971 in Würzburg with 0: 1 against defending champion SC Jülich 1910 ; in the final, however, Müller was not used. He played his first Bundesliga game on May 19, 1973, when he was substituted on for Karl Berger at halftime on the 31st matchday in the 4-2 home win against Wuppertaler SV . He played this game as a VfB amateur. It was not until round 1973/74 that he, like his comrades Markus Elmer and Klaus-Dieter Jank, was accepted into the professional squad.

Here he played a total of 332 second division games until 1986 and scored ten goals. He was a member of the Kickers team, which on October 5, 1975 won the home game in the local derby against VfB in the 2nd Bundesliga in front of 29,000 spectators 2-0. In the rounds of 1979/80 and 1980/81 he took 3rd place with the Kickers and just barely missed the entry with teammates like Karl Allgöwer , Guido Buchwald , Dieter Dollmann , Peter Stichler , Werner Vollack , Klaus Täuber and Werner Nickel the Bundesliga.
