Chairman Karl-Heinz Rummenigge has played down suggestions that Thomas Muller could leave Bayern Munich during the January transfer window.
Having fallen down the pecking order at the Allianz Arena, Muller has allegedly acknowledged that he is considering his options as he looks for more regular football.
However, Rummenigge has hinted that no move is in the offing, courtesy of the club's strong relationship with the long-serving attacker.
Rummenigge told Welt am Sonntag: "I can not imagine that. The relationship between Thomas and Bayern is totally intact and will remain an important part of our club.
"If Thomas would sit contentedly on the bench, he would be in the wrong club. That's the reaction we even want, but he still has to deal with the situation seriously."
The 30-year-old, who has been linked with the likes of Liverpool and Manchester United, has made just four starts and four substitute appearances in the Bundesliga and Champions League this campaign.
