FRANCK RIBERY has signed a new one-year deal with Bayern Munich – ending months of speculation over his future.
The 35-year-old was out-of-contract this summer, and was expected to leave the Bundesliga champions for a fresh start.

He revealed the news on Instagram before deleting the message earlier today, .
It is understood he was offered the new contract back in April, and was mulling over his future.
Bayern are expected to confirm the extension at some point today.
Ribery was thought to have been frustrated at the club, but had a change of heart and decided to stay.
However, Arjen Robben has still not signed a new deal and his future is up in the air.
He could quit the Bundesliga this summer, with a number of clubs interested in his signature.
