Germany defender Philipp Lahm said Thursday he is waiting for a signal from Bayern Munich's bosses to extend his contract past 2012 and wants to commit his long-term future to the German giants.

Lahm, 26, who has been nominated for FIFA's Ballon d'Or award, is under contract at Bayern until June 2012 and wants to sign an extension.

"Things are going well at the moment and I am waiting for a signal from the board," he told Munich newspaper TZ.
