Gotze committed to staying at Bayern
Mario Gotze has insisted he is committed to impressing incoming Bayern Munich manager Carlo Ancelotti, which appears to rule out a move to Liverpool.
Sky sources revealed in March that Liverpool were interested in a summer move for the Bayern playmaker with Jurgen Klopp reportedly making him his No 1 summer transfer target.
Gotze has plummeted down the Bayern pecking order under Pep Guardiola's reign as manager with the Spaniard opting to leave the midfielder on the bench for big games, including the Bundesliga club's crucial Champions League semi-final ties with Atletico Madrid last month.
But, speaking to Bild, the Germany international insisted he was relishing the chance of a fresh start under Ancelotti, who is due to take charge of Bayern in the coming weeks.
"I look forward to the new season in Munich and will do everything possible to be in top shape for my first training session under Carlo Ancelotti," he said.
The 23-year-old, who has a year left on his contract, had been linked with a move to Juventus as well as a return to former club Borussia Dortmund.
