Bayern Munich midfielder Owen Hargreaves is focusing on his recovery from a broken leg rather than a possible move to Manchester United.

The 25-year-old England international was a target for the Red Devils before the transfer window closed at the end of August, before suffering a broken leg in a Bundesliga clash with Arminia Bielefeld in mid-September.

Hargreaves told BBC Radio Five Live: "It's not up to me what happens.

"Manchester United have been very open with the fact they would like to sign me, but the most important thing is for me to get healthy.

"It's a great honour and we'll see what happens.

"It's slow progress in my recovery, but it's good to see progress. I'm happy."
