Thomas Muller has expressed disbelief at the prospect of a €100 million move to Manchester United, as the forward continues to be linked with the Premier League club.
Bayern Munich striker Muller has long been linked with a switch to Old Trafford, with speculation resurfacing this week as reports in Germany suggested a potential price tag of €100m.
Muller has spoken of interest from United in the past, but agreed a new contract at the Allianz Arena until 2019 in June last year.
And the Germany international has been somewhat taken aback at fresh talk of a big-money bid from United.
It s basically crazy, the current numbers being talked about in football, he told Sport1.
That s just the nature of the business, though, therefore I m very relaxed.
In Dresden a fan recently approached me with a megaphone and said Hey Mr €100 million man, how much is your jersey worth? I just smiled.
Chief executive officer Karl-Heinz Rummenigge has joined Muller in playing down United s interest of late stating his opinion that the 25-year-old would remain at Bayern for life .
The Germany international made his Bayern debut in 2008 and worked with United boss Louis van Gaal at the Allianz Arena between 2009 and 2011.
