German forward Thomas Muller will remain at Bayern Munich until 2023 after signing a two-year contract extension.

Muller, 30, has spent 12 years with the German champions with more than 500 appearances and won 16 major honours with Bayern since signing for the first team in 2008.

He made his debut in 2009, scoring 116 goals in all competitions after 343 matches.

"This club is not just any old employer for me. It's my passion," said Muller, who has scored 116 Bundesliga goals.

"I'm happy that I'll be here for two extra years, and I'll give everything on and off the pitch."

Bayern are four points clear at the top of the Bundesliga, which has been suspended until at least 30 April because of the coronavirus pandemic.

"I'm sure that once we're playing again, we'll continue to be very successful. That spurs me on," Muller said.

Bayern's players resumed training this week in groups of five.
