Bayern chief executive Karl-Heinz Rummenigge says that Ruud van Nistelrooy will be at Bayern next season.

"The player wants to join us, that is already known," Rummenigge told Bild Am Sonntag.

"We will settle the issue in due course - there is no reason to hurry.

"We have to talk with the player and, of course, Manchester United as well."

The German Rekordmeister have already signed Lukas Podolski and Daniel van Buyten but are still hoping to add at least one more big-name signing.

"There are some things in the pipeline," revealed Hoeness.
