Mats Hummels To Remain At Bayern Munich Until The End Of Season Despite Premier League Interest

Bayern Munich Chairman Karl-Heinz Rummenigge has insisted Mats Hummels would see out the season with Bayern Munich.

Mats Hummels, 30, has been linked with a move to the Premier League as the centre-back struggles for game time at Bayern this season.

But Rummenigge said the Germany international was going nowhere in January after talks with the club’s hierarchy.

“We had a conversation with Mats a few days ago and he will play for Bayern Munich in the second half of the season,” he said after the club’s 1-0 win over RB Leipzig on Wednesday.

Bayern sporting director Hasan Salihamidzic said Hummels had asked for talks with the club.

“We talked to Mats, it was a good conversation, Mats feels very well in Munich, and if a player does not always play, it’s clear that there are discussions,” he said.

“Mats wanted to talk to us. We explained our point of view to him and he explained his point of view. I think that we came to a common denominator.”
