Donovan unlikely to extend with Bayern

http://msn.foxsports.com/soccer/story/9230914/Donovan-unlikely-to-extend-with-Bayern

MUNICH (AP) - Landon Donovan is unlikely to stay with Bayern Munich on a longer contract once his loan expires in mid-March, according to the club's chairman.

Donovan practiced with Bayern in December and then joined the German champions during the Bundesliga's winter break, in a loan deal similar to the one his Los Angeles Galaxy teammate David Beckham has with AC Milan. The loan expires March 15.

"Donovan is an interesting player," Bayern chairman Karl-Heinz Rummenigge told the Munich newspaper TZ in an interview published Tuesday. "But when you have Klose, Toni and Olic already under contract, we think the fourth player (striker) should really be a young player with perspective."

Miroslav Klose and Luca Toni are Bayern's starting strikers, while Hamburg's Ivica Olic has been signed as a free agent for next season. Backup striker Lukas Podolski is returning to FC Cologne at the end of the season.

After arriving at Bayern, Donovan said he would be interested in a longer contract. He scored four goals in practice games and has made four appearances, all as a substitute, in the Bundesliga and the German Cup, without scoring.

Donovan failed to break through in two earlier Bundesliga stints, both with Bayer Leverkusen.

Bayern has just given 19-year-old forward Thomas Mueller a full contract until the end of the 2010-11 season. Mueller has been playing for Bayern's reserves.

Another player from the reserves, defender Holger Badstuber, also got a similar contract.

Young, outstanding, or both... those are the criteria.

Donovan appears to be neither in the eyes of Rummenigge

BAYERN vs SPORTING

The only Champion's League round of 16 game that is definitely over after the 1st leg. Mercy rule should go into effect and scrap the 2nd leg and not waste people time and money

Bitter · « **Reply #35 on:** March 10, 2009, 02:26:02 PM »

Anybody associated with Sporting will roll up into a feotal position at the mention of the word "Bayern".

That game was real good. As for Grafite's goal below......

Yep. Was saying the same thing yesterday: he well beat he former team. I guess his VERY workmanlike approach to the game was not good enough for Bayern. Magath is known for having intense preseasons, where players start off not touching the ball at all, and they do a lot of resistance training starting off...

I now watch that Bayern game on GolTv.
Klinsmann sit down at the end with a little jackass smile on his face.

That 2nd Grafite goal was just sick.

Yeah, but Dzeko playing for Man City this morning. Wolfsburg will miss that firepower. Grafite still there, but they ent have the same magic they had when they won a couple seasons ago.

Watching Bayern vs Dortmund... scouting mission, Sahin and Gotze, 2 players United linked with

Sahin, fantastic player, Turkish version of Fabregas ... he will be a hit in any top team.. What I like about him is he plays CM in a 4-4-2 which is what United play 75% time... but he is technically gifted, moving the ball around, plays with great speed, no sticking on the ball.

Modric to me is the ideal choice but he should be back up should we fail with a Modric offer

Sign him up Fergie!

Gotze is a young talented Attacking midfielder.. looking lively but not in the game as much as Sahin who is running the show as Dortmund lead 3-1 in Munich.. he also scored a great 30 yard effort... quite a player

Game going good though..Munich like they still thinking about their mission in the San Siro , they started well but now looking poor.

Jah willing we move on in the CL; Bayern is one side I hope we don't face. That side has serious talent and they know how to get results.

Wey-this thread was buried on the 20th page! Bundesliga wide open this season; great talent thru out the league. Bayern just scored in injury time to beat Wolfsburg.

I will be keeping an eye on Neuer for Bayern; want to see if he can adjust to playing fro Bayern . Read somewhere after he let in a soft goal that he has a hard time focusing for long periods when he doesn't have to make a save. And that he isuse to making a lot of saves when he played FC Schalke. Damn he might be Ben Foster in disguise! What would he have done if he had come to United because their goalies usually don't have a lot of saves to make.

Bitter · « **Reply #55 on:** August 13, 2011, 10:15:28 AM »

Bundesliga wide open as always, Shalke loss 3-0 last week, beat Koln 5-1 today. Never a dull moment.

What about Dortmund won big vs Hamburg then lost to Hoffenheim today.

Dortmund's knock in the first game was really sweet.

dinho · « **Reply #57 on:** August 13, 2011, 11:00:18 AM »

Thanks for bringing this back.

Bundesliga is the best league after EPL and La Liga. The knock in that league is breathless, end to end with plenty pace and action. Plus plenty teams evenly matched unlike La Liga and Serie A.

I think this league will be up there with EPL in the next few years.

I only wish Sportsmax or FSC used to carry it.
