Bayern Munich general manager Uli Hoeness has declared the club wouldn't sell Franck Ribery even if they received a bid of more than €70million. The 26-year-old has been persistently linked with a move to Real Madrid this summer, with the winger said to favour a move to the Bernabeu.
However the Bundesliga giants have remained defiant in their stance that the France international is not for sale.
The saga has gone quiet over the past week but Hoeness has broke the silence by declaring not even a mammoth bid could prise Ribery away.
"He will certainly stay," he told TZnewspaper. "We are not prepared to talk, not even for €70million or more."
Ribery is currently struggling with a knee injury which has forced him to pull out of training on two occasions, prompting suggestions the former Marseille man is sulking.
Hoeness dismisses the rumours and insists the player is genuinely injured.
"If he is injured he is injured. Just like anybody else," he stated.
