Rensing wants Bayern exit

Bayern Munich goalkeeper Michael Rensing has announced he wants a move away from the Allianz Arena to find first-team football.

The 25-year-old, the long-time back-up to Oliver Kahn, has fallen behind Hans-Jorg Butt in the pecking order after a poor start to the season.

"There is no sense in me remaining," he told Sport Bild magazine.

"My position as Oliver Kahn's successor was not easy right from the start.

"Particularly since the club was undergoing a revolution.

"This situation and the lack of success did not help me to be judged objectively."

Rensing admits he should probably have made the decision to leave Bayern before now, saying he needs "two or three years elsewhere, which is what I will do now".

"Errors are not forgiven at FC Bayern."
