Thiago: I won't leave Bayern without winning Champions League

Having signed a new contract, the Spanish midfielder says he is determined to win the Champions League before he will consider leaving

Thiago Alcantara admits he is desperate to win the Champions League with Bayern Munich after signing a new contract with the Bundesliga champions.

Bayern confirmed on Friday the Spain international has extended his deal until June 2021.

Thiago has won three Bundesliga titles and two DFB-Pokals in a hugely successful four years since joining from Barcelona but he has yet to get beyond the semi-final stage of Europe's elite club competition.

Bayern were knocked out by Real Madrid in the quarter-finals this year and Thiago is determined to get his hands on the trophy before he considers a future away from the Allianz Arena.
