Bayern’s current leading goalscorer Mario Gomez (26) has pledged his long-term future to the club. The Germany international, who has 37 goals to his name in 41 matches this season, has inked a new deal keeping him at FCB until 30 June 2016, after agreeing the terms of a contract extension with the FC Bayern München AG board of directors.

“As I’ve always said, FC Bayern is a magnificent club, where I feel good and where I believe I have the best sporting perspective, so I’m delighted we’ve agreed a contract extension,” commented Gomez, “I’m convinced we’re set for great things here in the years to come. I want to play my part in that.“

“In recent years, Mario Gomez has developed into one of Europe’s best strikers,” said Bayern director of sport Christian Nerlinger, “we’re delighted he’ll continue to score his goals for FC Bayern. We’ve now concluded contract extensions with Mario and other current internationals, securing a long-term foundation for FC Bayern over the coming years.”
