Bayern Munich have announced their third departure ahead of next season, with Jerome Boateng and David Alaba already on their way out.
Javi Martinez will bring an end to his nine-year spell in Munich when his contract expires at the end of the campaign.
The Spanish midfielder joined the Bavarians from Athletic Bilbao in 2012 in a €40-million deal and has made 266 appearances for the German club since.
"I'm very proud and happy to have been part of the FC Bayern family for nine years," the Spaniard told the club's official website. "I'd like to thank this great club and especially our fans – you have made Munich my home!
"I'll never forget these nine years. From the very first day, I felt the 'Mia san mia' and the special nature of FC Bayern. I lived for this club, always gave everything for it, and am very happy about the many titles we won together.
"FC Bayern and its fans will forever be in my heart. Muchas gracias, dankeschon, servus – see you again!"
Martinez looks set to end his Bayern career with a Bundesliga title as the Bavarians could wrap up the league with a victory Borussia Monchengladbach on the coming weekend.
