Allianz Arena to Old Trafford? German star in potential move away from Munich

Fourth placed Manchester United have been boosted today by news that long term target Thomas Muller could be eyeing a change of scenery.The World Cup winner had been a target of the Red Devils in the summer with Muller admitting he turned down a big money move to Old Trafford. But the Daily Star report that Louis van Gaal hasn't given up hope of signing the 25-year-old and has been boosted by news that the German international is willing to leave the Bundesliga champions for pastures new.It's thought the player is pining for a new challenge and has tasked his agent with finding a new club, with Manchester United being a likely destination.These reports come as a shock as Muller himself publicly stated he wasn't thinking about a move away from Bayern Munich, although he did claim his relationship with van Gaal was indeed special:"It's no secret that Louis van Gaal and I have a relationship that goes a little beyond the normal relationship between coaches and players."[But] I have a contract with Bayern Munich until summer 2017."
