Joshua Kimmich has opened up on his Bayern Munich future as he heads into the final few months of his contract.

But despite that offer, several clubs, including Liverpool, have been linked with a move for the German international.

And addressing his situation, Kimmich, speaking after Bayern's 3-0 victory over Bayer Leverkusen in the first leg of their Champions League last-16 tie, said: “My plan was to make my decision before the international break.

"The club didn’t want that, which is legitimate.

It was important to get off to a good start this season after a difficult last season and build a relationship with each other again.

"The club now wanted to have a decision before the two games against Leverkusen.

But there will be a decision soon.

"I don’t know if it will be between both legs [against Leverkusen], but it will definitely be before the international break at the latest”

When asked whether other clubs are playing a role in his decision-making process, Kimmich answered with a short but clear: "Yes."

Addressing Kimmich's situation after Bayern's 3-1 win over Stuttgart on Friday, sporting director Max Eberl said: "If the truth is out there in public, then that’s how it is.

Then things will continue at FC Bayern.

There were great players here at FC Bayern who eventually had to leave the club because they couldn't reach an agreement and their contracts ran out.
