Bayern Munich coach Jupp Heynckes wants to extend Arjen Robben's contract with the club, dampening speculation linking the Netherlands winger with a move.
Heynckes tells Kicker magazine he would ''personally recommend an extension in any case and that's also the tenor in the club ... We need a top player like him.''
Heynckes says Robben ''is a player that makes the difference'' despite the 27-year-old Dutchman's injury-hit season.
Robben's contract with Bayern expires in 2013.

Heynckes says Bayern is not planning any winter signings, while ''two top players will do'' in the offseason.
The 66-year-old coach also says Franck Ribery still has room for improvement.
