Madmax 9,219 Posted November 23, 2010 Share Posted November 23, 2010 Karl-Heinz Rummenigge has dismissed comments from coach Louis van Gaal suggesting that Bayern Munich should consider selling midfielder Bastian Schweinsteiger at the end of the season.Schweinsteiger's current contract expires in the summer of 2012 and Van Gaal is concerned the club will miss out on a sizeable transfer fee should the player opt to see out the deal and move on a Bosman free.But executive board chairman Rummenigge is adamant the Bundesliga champions are not looking to sell the 26-year-old and remain confident Schweinsteiger will agree a new deal."I have always said that we really want to extend Bastian's contract and that is what we are working on. He is one of our most important players, if not the most important one."But if (a contract extension) does not happen then he will certainly stay at Bayern until June 30, 2012. He will not leave before that date. He [Van Gaal] cannot decide that. In this case I will have the final say.''SoccernetI guess that settles it for the time being.

LDN Blue 7,903 Posted December 8, 2010 Share Posted December 8, 2010 I guess another transfer we can forget..Real Madrid have maintained an interest in the player for some time and following a pre-season friendly in August between the two respective sides, Jose Mourinho was widely quoted as having told Schweinsteiger of his intention to sign him, when he quipped: “Next year you’re mine.”.“Bastian has asked me about the workings of Real.“We had already spoken before Mourinho's statement because we have a very good, open relationship.“Bastian is one of the few players who would succeed anywhere. But I would never advise anyone. One person wants to go abroad and the next doesn't.“Bayern are a very big, absolutely world-class club.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swoopz 183 Posted December 12, 2010 Share Posted December 12, 2010 Then again, Bayern did say that they wont sell Bastian until 2012 UNLESS he signs a new deal before any transfer window opens. Bayern know Romans pockets are deep, maybe this is a sign? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chillerz 19 Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 A contract has no value...what matters is the player wishes....with the way bundesliga is going...bayern may miss champions league...and we have always been linked with him..so who knows ..never say never Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MetsajCFC 1,255 Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 Signing a contract when there are different transfer rumours around can mean two things:a) Player really has commited to the club and is stayingorb ) It's just a nice way for a club to get that extra million from the transfer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueLion. 21,491 Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 We pulled out of this deal the moment we signed Ramires, as far as I'm concerned. (Yes, I'm aware they are a different kind of player.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZanSnake 1,211 Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 1. We don't need another midfeilder at the moment2. I bet he will stay at Bayern3. If he did leave it would be with Madrid rather then here, Madrid would pay ANY wage bill in order to gain such a talentMy views. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
