Soccer Betting Lines

03/17/2010 - Munich, Germany (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Bayern Munich captain Mark van Bommel has agreed to a contract extension that will keep him at the club through the end of next season.

Van Bommel's contract was set to expire at the end of the current campaign, but with the German giants currently chasing both the Bundesliga and Champions League titles, the Dutchman was happy to extend his stay another season.

"It was always my desire to extend my deal for one more year," he told the club's official website. "I want success with this team. That's our goal this year and next year. If we achieve that then we will talk again."

The 32-year-old Van Bommel joined Bayern from Barcelona in 2006 and has made over 130 appearances for the club while taking over as captain for goalkeeper Oliver Kahn in 2008.
