adminBerlin – Bayern Munich’s Thomas Muller has laughed off reports Manchester United want to sign him for up to £70 million with the Germany star describing the exorbitant sum as “crazy”.
German daily Bild has quoted the figure, but Bayern chairman Karl-Heinz Rummenigge has said the 25-year-old forward is not for sale and the Germany international laughed off the figure.
“It’s basically crazy the numbers which are currently kicking around in football – that’s just business,” Muller told German broadcaster Sport1 with United having already signed Germany captain Bastian Schweinsteiger in July.
“No one is worth 100 million euros, it’s just a trade figure, so I’m quite relaxed about the whole thing.”
Meanwhile, Real Madrid have accepted Arsenal’s bid to sign French international striker Karim Benzema. According to reports, Arsenal’s £48 million offer for Karim Benzema has been accepted.
The English news source report that Rodney Marsh believes Arsenal will pull off a remarkable coup by landing Benzema before the summer window slams shut.
“I had a phone call from a mate of mine, and he’s been right on many things, and he said that he believes Real Madrid have accepted a bid somewhere in the region of £48 million for Benzema from Arsenal.” said Marsh.- AFP
