Gomez delighted with Bayern Munich switch Germany international striker Mario Gomez has revealed his delight at his propective move to Bayern Munich, revealing that he chose the Bavarian giants despite receiving lucrative offers to move to the English Premier League. The Stuttgart forward will complete his 30 million euros ($41m) transfer, a record between two Bundesliga sides, when the clubs agree on the technicalities of the deal and when he returns from international duty in China with Germany. "It has always been my dream to play for Bayern Munich," Gomez told Press Association Sport. "I saw no need and had no desire to move abroad. "I am moving because I want to take the next step in my career and Bayern are the German club who can hold their own in Europe. "I had offers from Italy, England and Bayern and I only needed two days to decide. Bayern have been interested in me for the last two years, even after I had a bad European Championship, and this is also why I didn't go abroad." The 23-year-old Gomez has spent six seasons with Stuttgart, helping them to the Bundesliga title in 2007, and has scored 62 goals in 119 games for the club. However he has often disappointed for the German national team and was heavily criticized for some ineffectual displays during the Euro 2008 finals.
This I'm sure means Ribery is leaving the team, so they're getting plenty of money to spend like you can see here with Gomez. Great move though, any way you look at it, Gomez will be a star internationally (if he isn't already) and has shown what he can do already in the Bundesliga. Now I just hope they move Toni, and get another forward, or even a mid-fielder. I heard on the news that Ze Roberto might be going back to Brazil.
