Robben: I snubbed offers from China - going there is admitting our career is over

The Netherlands international signed a new contract to ensure he remains at Bayern Munich, but admits he considered "crazy" offers from the Far East

Arjen Robben has revealed that he turned down big-money offers from China in favour of a prolonged stay at Bayern Munich.

The Netherlands international signed a one-year extension with Bayern on Monday that will keep him at the club until June 2018.

Several top players have been swayed by ludicrous offers from the Chinese Super League with the likes of Oscar, Carlos Tevez and Axel Witsel having made the move to China this month.
