""There are always a few offers, but I have a contract with Bayern until 2012 and I respect the contract and the club, I know that there is something great at Bayern. We didn't reach the UEFA Champions League final without good reason - and to win it is my ambition. To end this talk I will just say that I am not married to Bayern.

The Bundesliga is great, and has become more important, but if I were to move on then, of course, the idea of going abroad is what excites me.""
