Thomas Muller plays down exit talk

Bayern Munich attacker Thomas Muller has quelled rumours that he could leave the Allianz Arena this summer.

Manchester United have been strongly linked with a move for the German international in recent weeks as the Premier League champions prepare to rebuild their squad.

Bayern chairman Karl-Heinz Rummenigge hinted on Monday that the 24-year-old could be allowed to leave, but the player himself has played down such talk.

"I didn't invent the rumours, so I can't comment on them," he told Bild.

"Let's say this - I'm certainly not about to move but I can't guarantee that forever."

Muller has a contract with Bayern until the summer of 2017.
