Bayern Munich chairman Karl-Heinz Rummenigge has claimed Chelsea, Man United and Barcelona have made offers for Franck Ribery.
Ribery is a known target for big-spending Real Madrid but Rummenigge has revealed three of their European rivals have stolen a march in their pursuit of the 26-year-old.
The former Germany international, speaking in an interview with Bild newspaper, said: "We are relaxed and proud that we have one of the best three players in the world under contract.
"Real Madrid president Florentino Perez and his advisor Pedro Jimenez asked if we were willing to speak with them over a transfer but we rejected the chance and we have no intention of selling Ribery."
Asked if Madrid made an offer, he replied: "No but other clubs have done.
"Chelsea have lodged a bid, as have Manchester United and Barcelona.
"We are completely relaxed about it. The power lies with Bayern Munich."
Bayern have repeatedly insisted Ribery is not for sale, and Rummenigge is adamant the club will not relent and cash in on their prize asset.
He added: "I don't want to talk about sums of money because it is not in our interest.
