Guardiola: No Bayern Munich player wanted to join Man Utd

Bayern Munich manager Pep Guardiola says none of his players wanted to leave for Manchester United over the summer. United were linked with moves for Toni Kroos, Bastian Schweinsteiger, Arjen Robben and Thomas Muller during the summer months and while Kroos moved to Real Madrid, the others were 'happy' remaining in Munich.

"They don't have enough money," said Guardiola. "I saw they spent this kind of [big] money.

"It's good for my friend Louis [van Gaal]. I know all the players the clubs want, it just depends on the player.

"If the player wants to stay, they stay. Manchester United wants these kind of players, but they want to stay and we are happy to be here."
