Bundesliga
side Bayern Munich have clearly told Manchester United to stop contacting them
regarding the transfer of Thomas Muller.
Manchester
United have been eyeing the German attacker for the past several years,
especially after the arrival of Louis van Gaal.
The
Dutch boss was keen to sign him in the summer window, however he failed but
bought Bastian Schweinsteiger.
Bayern
Munich chief executive Karl-Heinz Rummenigge told earlier today that the Premier League giants should stop asking for Muller’s transfer.
The
reports have already revealed that the German outfit rejected a big bid in
the summer and they will not change their mind.
Rummenigge
told Sport1:
“I am not a banker. We are a football club," Rum. "That is why we
never even considered selling Thomas Muller.”
He
further said that he cannot close his email account due to Man United emails.
Muller
has four year left on his current contract and has no plans to leave the five
times Champions League winners.
Muller
who netted twice last weekend is set to join Germany squad this week ahead of
two games against Republic of Ireland and Georgia.
The
26-year-old has netted eight goals in even games for Germany.
The
2014 World Cup winner need a point to secure their place in the finals of
European Championship which will be played next summer in France.
