Vidal: 'I'll only leave Bayern for CL club'

Midfielder Arturo Vidal says that he will only entertain an exit from Bayern Munich if he receives an offer from a club playing in the Champions League.

Midfielder Arturo Vidal has suggested that he is open to the possibility of leaving Bayern Munich.

Vidal has spent the last three seasons at the Allianz Arena, with 22 goals being scored in 132 appearances for the German giants.

However, a number of players could depart Bayern during the summer transfer window and although Vidal has acknowledged that he could take on a new challenge, the Chile international has said that he will only join a club who are playing in the Champions League.

The 31-year-old told La Prensa Austral: "I still have a year left on my contract in Bavaria. I am very relaxed, I know what I'm worth and how I have to play important games. This is why there are so many offers when the market opens, but this time I intend to take it slowly.

"My agent, Fernando Felicevich, will take care of everything. I dedicate myself to rest so I can start next season in great shape. If I do change teams, it'll be to challenge in the Champions League, win titles and fight for something important."

Earlier this week, the agent of Robert Lewandowski said that the Polish forward wanted to leave Bayern ahead of next season.
