David Alaba has committed his future to Bayern Munich by signing a new three-year contract.
The 23-year-old recently opened talks with the Bundesliga giants over extending his stay, despite reports linking him with a summer transfer.
It was rumoured that current Bayern boss Pep Guardiola was keen to take the Austrian with him to Manchester City at the end of the season.
However, Alaba has dispelled the rumours by putting pen to paper on a new deal.

"I'm proud that I'll continue to play for my club," Alaba told the club's official website. "I grew up at FC Bayern and I've experienced unbelievably wonderful moments here. We're all hungry to add further trophies to the ones we've already won."
Chairman Karl-Heinz Rummenigge added: "David Alaba is an FC Bayern youth product, so we are especially delighted at his signature today keeping him here at least until 2021.
"He is one of the players who gives our current team its character. The way he plays, but also how he conducts himself away from the field, are the embodiment of FC Bayern. He will continue to be one of the cornerstones of our team in the years to come."
Alaba made his first senior appearance for Bayern in 2010 and has gone on to become a regular at the Allianz Arena.
