Bayern Munich tell Chelsea, Man Utd: £50M for Ribery

Bayern Munich have reacted quickly to Franck Ribery's comments that he fancied playing for Manchester United or Chelsea by slapping a £50 million price-tag on the Frenchman.

Bayern are under no financial pressure to sell and Ribery is happy for now in Germany with his £80,000 a week contract.

But the former Marseille star admits he wants to play for a top club in England or Spain at some point in his career.

"Bayern are obviously one of the biggest and best clubs in the world," he told Germany's Kicker magazine. "Obviously there are other clubs who would be a dream: Real Madrid and Barcelona, Chelsea and Manchester United.

"I certainly love Real Madrid because of their great tradition, but I feel happy here at Bayern. We will have to wait and see what the future holds."
