Michael Ballack has again insisted that he could yet remain at Bayern Munich.
Ballack's future remains the talk of Europe, after Bayern withdrew their last contract offer at their AGM this week.
The German star's contract expires in the summer and most of Europe's elite - including Real Madrid, Barcelona and Manchester United - are hovering knowing they can offer him a contract in January.
The 29-year-old is considering his options, but has reaffirmed that a new deal at Bayern is very much one of them.
"It's absolutely not the end, it's still possible that I'll opt for Bayern Munich," he said.
"This is my last contract and I just want time to be certain about where I want to end my career and which road I'm taking in my life.
"My heart is with Bayern Munich. That's the reason I didn't say goodbye long ago."
sky消息 大意是巴拉克表示拜仁仍然是选择之一

尽管拜仁慕尼黑俱乐部决定撤回为巴拉克开出的高价合同,不过拜仁主帅马加特仍然对巴拉克留在拜仁信心十足。“我相信无论如何他都会留下的。”马加特说道。
而拜仁俱乐部总经理大赫内斯也表示巴拉克有理由留在拜仁。“我还没有得到他最终的决定。”赫内斯说 ,“我可以想像米夏尔会继续留在拜仁。但有一点很清楚,从现在起,占据谈判主导的是我们,而不是他。”
赫内斯的这番表态让人们觉得拜仁的这一举措更像是一种谈判技巧,而并非彻底放弃巴拉克。不过不管怎样,拜仁与巴拉克的关系已经变得微妙起来。
