All through the summer transfer window and in many prior to this season, Manchester United have been heavily linked to Bayern Munich’s German superstar Thomas Müller.
During the last window, Bayern Munich chairman, Karl-Heinz Rummenigge, came out and claimed that they would not be selling anymore of their players to Manchester Untied.
This statement came after the fans outcry at Bayern Munich selling World Cup winner Bastian Schweinsteiger to the Red Devils.
Bayern’s fans have been getting increasingly displeased with the management of their club since Pep Guardiola took charge. They believe that he’s making the team too Spanish, in style and personnel, and this has not been helped by the sales of Toni Kroos, to Real Madrid and Bastian Schweinsteiger.
But, to regain some credibility, Rummenigge has stood by his word, and has cut off Manchester United from signing their incredible German forward.
The Bayern Chairman took to Twitter to further enforce his stand against the sale of Müller:
Rummenigge, @FCBayern: “I told Woodward, that I can’t switch of my Email-account, so he should stop sending offers for @esmuellert_” @ManUtd

Thomas Müller also seems to be very happy to be playing at the biggest club in his home country. He already has 10 goals, and an assist in 11 games for the German side this season.
He also likes his Chairman, and even wished him a happy birthday last month:
Happy birthday, Karl-Heinz Rummenigge! All the best. #esmuellert
