BERLIN, Aug. 28 (Xinhua) -- Dutch national midfielder Arjen Robben from Real Madrid was on his way to Bayern Munich, and the star winger will sign on Friday a four-year contract with the German record champion, it was revealed on Thursday.
"It's true, we are interested in signing Arjen Robben. He is on his way to Munich," Bayern general manager Uli Hoeness confirmed on Thursday evening.
The 25-year-old will complete the obligatory medical on Friday in Munich, and local media said Robben's contract is worth 25 million euros.
Hoeness aims for a quick agreement before Saturday's top-clash in the Bundesliga with Wolfsburg.
"If everything runs smoothly, it s theoretically possible that he will play on Saturday," he said.
Robben, who has appeared in 43 games for the Netherlands, saw no future at his current club Real Madrid.
"He is one of the best offensive midfield players in Europe. He was always on top of our list," said Hoeness.
"Our intention is to field Ribery on the left wing and Robben on the right," he explained.
