Franck Ribery is urging Bastian Schweinsteiger to re-sign with Bayern Munich.

The midfielder has touted himself to Manchester United and Chelsea this week.

But Ribery says: "I hope he can sign up to 2015, as I did. I have a great relationship with him, players like him are important to the club."

Schweinsteiger has put off new contract talks until after the January market.
