BERLIN - Bayern Munich chairman Karl-Heinz Rummenigge said Tuesday he is"cautiously optimistic" of keeping David Alaba but is braced to lose Liverpool target Thiago Alcantara once the Champions League finishes in Lisbon.

With a year left on their contracts, both defender Alaba and central midfielder Alcantara are stalling over extensions. So far, the Spaniard, who has won the Bundesliga title in each of his seven seasons in Munich, has rejected all of Bayern's efforts to keep him. He said he is focused solely on the Champions League as Bayern bid for the treble, having already claimed an eighth straight Bundesliga title and lifted the German Cup.
