Robben and Ribery lined up for Bayern renewals by Rummenigge

Bayern Munich chief executive Karl-Heinz Rummenigge has suggested veteran wingers Arjen Robben and Franck Ribery could be set for contract renewals following the side's latest Bundesliga title win.

Both players' deals expire at the end of the season, and they featured in a 4-1 win away at Augsburg on Saturday that wrapped up a sixth successive title, with Robben on the scoresheet.

Bayern coach Jupp Heynckes hailed the pair as "great professionals with outstanding quality", before Rummenigge proposed that there is little reason not to hand both men new deals.

"There is not much to say against an extension," he told SportBild.
