United in mammoth striker bid.
Manchester United made a huge bid of around £60m to sign Bayern Munich forward Thomas Muller this summer, it has been revealed.
The Red Devils were keen to bring in a new big-name striker this summer, but opted instead to make the somewhat risky signing of Anthony Martial, who arrived from AS Monaco for around £36m, potentially rising to £58m.
Muller would have been a far more proven talent if he’d made the move to Old Trafford, with the German international long regarded as one of the best players in the world.
