Dutch international Arjen Robben has signed a two-year contract extension with German leaders Bayern Munich that will keep him at the Allianz Arena until the summer of 2017.
The forward, who joined the Bundesliga outfit in 2009 for £24m after he left Real Madrid, would have been out of contract in 2015, but the extension proves that the 30-year-old is happy with life in Germany.
