Thomas Muller’s future has become a little clearer after he hinted he was close to a contract extension at Bayern Munich.

The German forward has been subject to widespread speculation, with the 26-year-old previously claiming he could be tempted by a move to the Premier League.

And while his latest comments will not end that guesswork, it does appear his long-term plans will be announced in the near future.

"There is a lot of indication for it and not a lot against it," Muller said when quizzed about a new Bayern contract during a PR event on Wednesday.

He added that he could not give "a new water-level report".

Manchester United and Chelsea are believed to be interested in signing the World Cup winner, should he become available.

Lothar Matthaus and Matthias Sammer are the latest Bayern legends to declare Muller should stay at the Allianz Arena.
