Veteran Dutch winger Arjen Robben has said he is "proud" of the offers he has received from other clubs since announcing he will leave Bayern Munich at the end of the season.

Robben, who turns 35 on January 23, is out of contract in June with Bayern, but has reportedly already been approached by PSV Eindhoven and Inter Milan.

The flying Dutchman is tight lipped over the details of the offers he has received since confirming last month that this will be his final season at Bayern, a decade after joining from Real Madrid in 2009.

"I have received a few offers and have to admit they have made me somewhat proud," Robben said at Bayern's winter training camp in Doha.

"The last few weeks have been quite stressful, especially for my father, who is my agent.

"However, what I said before the winter break is still valid - my future's still open.

"I don't know when exactly, but at some point I will have to make a decision and I won't wait until the end of the season, because I have family and must plan accordingly."
