Bayern have already signed midfielder Douglas Costa from Shakhtar Donetsk, Stuttgart goalkeeper Sven Ulreich and former Stuttgart midfielder Joshua Kimmich this summer.

Long-serving midfielder Bastian Schweinsteiger has been their highest-profile departure - the 30-year-old having joined Manchester United.

Rummenigge, speaking on Bayern's pre-season tour of China, also said no talks are planned to discuss a contract extension for coach Pep Guardiola.

The former Barcelona boss, who has been linked with a future move to Manchester City, reaches the end of his deal next summer.

Rummenigge said: "I can't currently think of any reason why Pep would leave us. Maybe we'll just meet for an espresso and clear everything.

Guardiola, 44, has led Bayern to the domestic title in his first two years in Germany but not beyond the semi-finals of the Champions League.
