Franck Ribery is regarded as a Bayern Munich legend
Ribery, 36, plans to keep on playing football next season.
“When I came to Bayern, it was a dream come true,†said the former France international.
“It won’t be easy to say goodbye, but we must never forget what we’ve achieved together, we’ve won so much together – more than 20 honours.
“I don’t have a concrete plan for next season yet. I’m not sure where I can go to play football. I will keep playing but nothing is 100 per cent certain yet.”

Arjen Robben will also leave Bayern Munich this summer
Ribery scored 123 goals in 422 appearances after joining from Marseille in 2007.
Bayern winger Arjen Robben is also leaving the club at the end of the season – the pair terrorised defenders in Europe as they won the Champions League in 2013.
A testimonial match will be held for both players next year.
