Manchester United are preparing a bid for Bayern Munich striker Thomas Muller. The Independent on Sunday says United will make a move to sign Muller from Bayern Munich this summer.
Louis van Gaal has made the forward positions one of the key areas he wants to improve, and he sees Muller as an ideal fit. The United manager gave the striker his first regular run of games as coach of Bayern in the 2009-10 season, and he is known to still think highly of Van Gaal.
United hope to use that as leverage in the deal, as well as the apparent discord that has arisen between Müller and the current Bayern manager, Pep Guardiola.
