The France winger has been linked up with Real Madrid and Barcelona, with recent reports claiming the Catalans reached an initial agreement with the Bavarians over a summer deal for the 26-year-old.

Hoeness referred that Bayern are under no pressure to sell Ribery, who's also believed to be eyed by Manchester United.

"It will not be so difficult to keep him. Ribery has a contract for another two years and there is no buy-out clause," Hoeness told the German press.
