Rummenigge: Toni will not leave
By Gregg Davies published
Bayern Munich president Karl-Heinz Rummenigge has insisted striker Luca Toni is still in the club's plans, and will not be sold in January. The 32-year-old has netted 38 league goals in just 56 outings for the German giants since arriving in 2007, having bagged 47 and 50 league goals for previous clubs Fiorentina and Palermo respectively.

The prolific forward - who has been recovering from Achilles problems - grew concerned about his first-team opportunities at the Allianz Arena during pre-season following the arrival of new coach Louis van Gaal and strikers Mario Gomez and Ivica Olic.
And it led to him issuing the Bundesliga giants an ultimatum, insisting he will seek a move away during the winter transfer window if he is not used regularly.
Tottenham Hotspur and West Ham were both linked with a move for the front-man earlier this summer, while Roma and AC Milan have also been tipped to take the forward back to his homeland.
However, Bayern chief Rummenigge has now moved to quash talk of the Italian departing Munich.
"In January, none of our strikers will leave," he said on Tuttomercatoweb.
"I have read in the newspapers that we have already sold Toni.
"In fact, we have never had this problem because we are aware of his qualities and we need him.
"Even the coach [Louis van Gaal] is very happy," he concluded.
