TSG Hoffenheim's star striker Vedad Ibisevic has committed his immediate future to the Bundesliga's surprise packages, having been linked with a move to Bayern Munich.

The 24-year-old Bosnia international has scored 17 goals in 15 league games this season, sparking talk of interest from his club's main title rivals.

However, Ibisevic told Bild: "The enquiries from other clubs make me a bit proud, but I will definitively stay with Hoffenheim next season."

Bayern Munich president Frank Beckenbauer had earlier admitted that his club could try to prise Ibisevic away from Hoffenheim.

He told Premiere: "We are interested in all players who can help us improve and Ibisevic is one of those.

"He is not only a good player on the counter-attack, but someone who is continually dangerous in the box.

"I can't think of any reason that he wouldn't keep scoring for Bayern. Quite the opposite in fact, he would have more chances to get a shot in."
