Whether or not they qualify for the Champions League, Bayern Munich will not sell Arjen Robben, confirmed Karl-Heinz Rummenigge.
In recent weeks, Milan have been linked with the 27-year old, though a club insider admitted in March that a bid would be contingent on the player's availability. Assuming Rummenigge keeps his word, Robben will be off the market this summer.
"We all want to play in the Champions League and must now do everything we can to still make it," Rummenigge told Bild. "But one thing is 100% certain, and that is that Arjen Robben will be playing for FC Bayern next season, no matter what happens."
Yesterday, Robben's future came into question when he declined to confirm whether he would remain at the German club after this season. However, he also added: "I am happy here in Munich and want to stay here."
Bayern are currently fourth in the Bundesliga standings, two points behind Hannover. The German record champions need to finish third or better in order to qualify for the Champions League. Robben has previously stated that he has no intent to play in the Europa League, meaning that rumours of his potential departure could resurface in the event that Bayern fail to overcome Hannover.
