Manchester United are attempting to sign Thomas Muller but Bayern Munich are highly unlikely to sell the forward, German football expert Raphael Honigstein has told talkSPORT.
According to Honigstein, former Bayern boss Louis van Gaal is desperate to link up with the World Cup winner again and United have put together a £120million package to try and lure him to Old Trafford.
But he claims that will not be enough for the Red Devils to get their hands on the 25-year-old.
He told Hawksbee and Jacobs: “Bayern Munich consider him not for sale and an intrinsic part of the team. He is a on a very long contract. But United tried last year and have tried again.
“There is a suggestion in Munich that Ed Woodward will try to meet one of the Bayern officials to see if may there is a possibility, but I think it is very unlikely that they make that deal right now.
“The figure being banded round is about £120million. That includes the wages on a five-year deal, so is maybe not as impressive when you break it down. United haven’t quite given up yet, but there will come a point where they will feel it’s not going to happen.”
