He sealed his top 150 debut in July 2022, a month after winning his first Challenger title in Blois.

In 2023, Müller made his breakthrough on the ATP Tour after reaching his first tour final in Marrakesh, which earned him his top 100 debut in April 2023. In 2025, he won his maiden title in Hong Kong.
