The marriage between US footballer Landon Donovan and Bundesliga club Bayern Munich may not extend beyond its current terms which would end by the middle of March. This was confirmed by the German club side Chairman Karl-Heinz Rummenigge. In the terms of the agreement, Donovan was on loan from his club in the MLS LA Galaxy.
The many time national player for Germany opined that they have a dearth of footballers at the striker position should not be one as polished as Donovan but invest in a young player. Currently on its roster are Miroslav Klose and Luca Toni while Iyica Olic has been signed for the next season. Also in the line-up is Lukas Podolski until the end of the year until his transfer to FC Cologne.
While at Bayern Munich, Donovan has intimated he had wanted to stay for a longer contract and has appeared in the Bundesliga and the German Cup for the club side as a substitute without scoring. Previously, Donovan had stints with Bayer Leverkeusen but failed to break through and score goals for his side.
