Arjen Robben bests Johan Cruyff’s record (FCBayern.com)
Arjen Robben has had a tough battle with injuries of late, but the latest Bundesliga title for Bayern Munich clinched a special mark for the Dutchman.
It is nearly impossible to surpass Johan Cruyff, but Arjen Robben has achieved it in terms of domestic championship titles. When FCB’s number 10 sealed the title with Bayern on Matchday 29 he wrapped up his 11th domestic championship title. Robben is now ahead of Cruyff, who hoisted 10 trophies. Robben is pleased he has surpassed the three-time European Footballer of the Year: “Usually I’m not a fan of statistics, but Johan Cruyff is rightly considered the greatest footballer in Dutch history. If you surpass him in terms of titles it’s something very special; I’m really proud of it.”

Heynckes also touched on the celebration methods and what we hopes to avoid tomorrow.

Well, I also personally prefer to drink my Weißbier rather than shower in it.
Bayern is looking at Chelsea’s Kenedy to replace Juan Bernat (Kicker)
As Juan Bernat’s time in Munich appears to be coming to a close, Bayern is looking at potential replacement. Enter Kenedy, who has been on loan from Chelsea to Newcastle United. Kicker retells his history with Chelsea with a notable bite:
Kenedy could be described as a typical Chelsea transfer: acquired from Fluminense at the age of 19 in 2015 for €8 million; loaned out (to Watford) the first time after a few short appearances, then the next attempt to break through at Stamford Bridge, given up and loaned a second time—and now potentially about to leave the club.
Bayern have set their sights on the now 22-year-old Brazilian, who has been on loan at newly promoted Newcastle United since January, where he under Rafa Benitez he has developed into to a regular starter and helped the team escape relegation early. Chelsea are aware of Bayern's interest.
One twist is that Kenedy has not been playing left back at all for New Castle, but has instead been used in the left midfield and left wing. A transition to left back would not appear to be out of the question if the move comes to fruition.
Serge Gnabry thanks his fans for their support during his injury (@SergeGnabry)
Devastated to share the news that my injury has ended my season earlier than I had planned. However I will still be supporting the boys from off the pitch. I will continue working hard to come back. Thank you for your messages and support - can't wait to get back to my best.
