Bayern confirm Badstuber exit as defender looks abroad

The German defender is likely to move abroad for his next venture after the Bavarian announced he will leave the club at the conclusion of his deal

Bayern Munich have confirmed that Holger Badstuber is to leave the club at the end of his contract and is likely to pursue a move abroad.

The Germany defender has been on loan at Bundesliga rivals Schalke since January, but the Gelsenkirchen side confirmed on Thursday that they would not be making his transfer permanent.

Badstuber has been linked with a move to the Premier League where a reunion with former Bayern boss Pep Guardiola at Manchester City is being tipped.
