Tottenham And Liverpool Alerted As Robben Threatens To Quit Bayern

Liverpool and Tottenham are just two of the names being mentioned after it was reported that Arjen Robben may decide to leave Bayern Munich at the end of the season.

The fiery Dutch winger was involved in a bust-up with fellow midfielder Franck Ribery during the Champions League semi-final with Real Madrid and now he may decide to quit the club.

The Daily Mail has reported that he is unwilling to renew his contract which expires in the summer of 2013 and he may choose to walk out on the club who are set to play Chelsea in the Champions League final.

Reports in Germany have claimed that Ribery went as far as slapping Robben over an argument about who would take a free-kick against Real Madrid.

Robben moved to Bayern Munich for £20million when he left Real Madrid but he does have experience of the Premier League where he won the league title with Chelsea under Jose Mourinho.

The Mail believes that Liverpool and Tottenham have been alerted to the news of Robben's possible departure and may be interested in trying to sign him over the summer.

Bayern president Uli Hoeness has revealed that Robben was all set to sign a new contract with the club but suddenly he has delayed.

"All I know is that he was just about to put pen to paper, and now that has all been postponed," said Hoeness.
