Franck Ribery confirms he is ready to return to Bayern

Franck Ribery has stated on Instagram that he would be keen on re-joining Bayern München.
Franck Ribery has confirmed that he is open to a return to Bayern München should his former club need his help.

The 38-year-old winger was a key player for Bayern between 2007 and 2019, making 425 appearances with 124 goals and 182 assists to his name, before moving on to Fiorentina on a free transfer.

Ribery is now a free agent, and former Germany international Lothar Matthäus has taken to Instagram to state that he believes Bayern should think about taking the veteran back on a one-year deal if they 'can't find a winger they want and can sign'.

Commenting on Matthäus' Instagram post, Ribery declared himself open to a return, writing:

"Thanks, my friend. I'm ready!"
