Bayern Munich confirm new deal for Arjen Robben

Robben signs new contract at Bayern

Arjen Robben has quashed reports linking the winger with a switch away from Bayern Munich by signing a new deal with the German outfit.

The former Chelsea player was rumoured to be leaving the Bundesliga club, which is believed to have alerted the likes of Tottenham Hotspur, Manchester City and Liverpool.

"I have always stressed that I'm happy in Munich and at Bayern," said Robben. "That's why I liked the idea of extending my contract.

"Bayern is like a family for me, two of my three kids were born here. My family and me, we're feeling at home here. And from a football point of view, the extension is the right decision, too. We have a great team and I'm sure that we will have as much success as possible in the years to come."

Robben, who will remain at the club until 2015, was reportedly involved in a bust-up with teammate Franck Ribery.
