Franck Ribery itching to return for Bayern Munich

The Frenchman scored on his return from a nine-month lay-off in a loss to Borussia Monchengladbach in December.

However, Ribery subsequently picked up a muscle problem in a Champions League win against Dinamo Zagreb, and was ruled out for the rest of 2015.

Asked for his new year's wish by Bayern's official website, he said: "That I am fit again as soon as possible. I am really motivated to return.

"The two or three weeks in which I was fit in December were lovely and it's where I belong.

"I hope all the injured players are fit again soon. We want to fight together for many titles."

The 32-year-old added: "My head was ready but the muscle was still weak.

"It's important that my ankle no longer causes me any problems. Now it's just a muscle injury. I need rhythm and matches."
