| "Thomas Muller" |
The Germany international insists he has no plans to
leave Bayern Munich but openly admitted that high wages are one of the
attractions to playing in England.
It’d be nearly impossible for Manchester United to price Thomas Muller away from Bayern Munich - but there could be one way of luring the forward to Old Trafford...
The Germany international has openly admitted England would be an attractive option because of the high wages that are on offer, and given that his current salary with Bayern would not make him one of the top ten earners in the Premier League, there could be room for United to splash out.
"In the end, we should not forget that playing football is our job," the Germany international told WeltamSonntag earlier in October.
"So people should accept that wages will always play a role in a player's decision-making. Of course, the wages that are being paid in the Premier League are very tempting. It would be hypocrisy to deny that.
"You have to look at the complete package to determine whether something is right for you. What's good for you one day will not necessarily still be good for you the day after.
"I know that a lot of German clubs are unhappy with the Premier League clubs' spending, but I think it is something good for all clubs in the end. It can only be a good thing for football when clubs invest so much money."
