Bundesliga - Robben leaves door open for Bayern
Bundesliga - The father of Chelsea winger Arjen Robben has told Bayern Munich they are still in with a chance of signing his son and client - a day after insisting that he will sign a new contract at Stamford Bridge.
"There is still a chance that Arjen will move to Munich," Hans Robben told Bild.
Robben senior may be angling for extra money from the Blues on a proposed five-year deal. He put pressure upon the London club by referencing Bayern general manager Uli Hoeness.
"I agreed to call him if everything is concluded with Chelsea. We are still on the side of Chelsea; however, we are not yet in complete agreement."
The Bavarian club have only qualified for the UEFA Cup next season after a relatively poor Bundesliga campaign, while Chelsea finished second in the Premiership and will contest the Champions League once again.
The 23-year-old Netherlands winger would cost Bayern around 18 million euros, should they agree a fee.
