Munich, Sep 3 (DPA) Bayern Munich chairman Karl-Heinz Rummenigge in an interview said that there is 'no problem' between coach Louis van Gaal and midfielder Franck Ribery.

The French midfielder had said in interviews with French publications published earlier this week that his relationship with the Dutch coach was not close.

'It's the first time I haven't had a positive feeling with a coach. The feeling is not there,' Ribery was quoted by L'Equipe as saying.

But Rummenigge told Germany's Kicker magazine: 'I know from the player and the coach that there is no problem between them.'

Rummenigge also said he had not been in any doubt that Ribery would stay at the club despite transfer speculation this summer.
