Old Trafford side on alert as Borussia Dortmund man expresses desire to make move to English top flight.
Check in to Manchester United vs Southampton FC
Borussia Dortmund striker Robert Lewandowski has moved to quash speculation that a much discussed move to Bayern Munich has been agreed and has moved to state his interest in playing in the Premier League according to the Daily Mirror.
The 25 year old Polish international, who will lead his country into battle against England this evening, has stated publicly that no deal exists that would see him follow Mario Gotze to the Allianz Arena, stating;
“I will be able to sign a contract (with any club) in January, but I have never said that I will sign a contract with Bayern,”
“It was a misunderstanding. It is true I had an opportunity to speak with Sir Alex Ferguson (last year), but we didn’t mention the transfer.
“One day I would like to play in Premier League. It would be a great experience.”
Lewandowski is into the final year of his Borussia Dortmund contract and can discuss a summer deal with any prospective suitors in January and Man United are said to be on alert as David Moyes considers beefing up his Old Trafford attack.
With Wayne Rooney’s future at Man United still up in the air there is perhaps a decent chance that Moyes could see Lewandowski as a viable replacement for the England man.
Lewandowski has been a phenomenal success since leaving Lech Poznan for Germany back in June 2010 with the powerful forward scoring 84 goals in 148 appearances for the Westfalenstadion side.
