Chelsea defender Ivanovic eager to hear from Bayern Munich

Chelsea defender Branislav Ivanovic wants to hear from Bayern Munich.

Ivanovic has just over a year to run on his current deal.

Contrary to reports in England, where it's claimed Chelsea are confident Ivanovic is happy to wait for new contract talks until next season, BILD says the Serb's agents have sounded out Bayern about their interest.

However, Bayern have ruled out moving for the 31 year-old this summer, insisting his style of game doesn't suit Pep Guardiola's system.

Bayern are in the market for a new defender, but are seeking a younger prospect than Ivanovic.
