Spanish midfielder Javi Martinez is relishing the chance to win silverware with Bayern Munich after signing a five-year contract with the Bavarian giants on Wednesday.

The 23-year-old completed his €40m (£31.6m) move to the German club from Athletic Bilbao following weeks of speculation, and is eager to get started at the Allianz Arena.

"I am very happy and I'm looking forward to playing for a club with such a history," Martinez told FCB.tv. "I've had a very long wait, but finally the wait is over.

"Playing here was my dream. Bayern are one of the best clubs in Europe and in the world, and I hope to win titles with them."

Martinez joined Bilbao in 2006 from Osasuna B.
