Robert Lewandowski 'would cost Manchester United £35m'

Robert Lewandowski's agent says that Manchester United would need to pay in excess of £35m to sign the Bayern Munich forward.

The agent of Bayern Munich star Robert Lewandowski has warned Manchester United that only a £35m bid will force Bayern Munich to consider selling their forward.

The Premier League giants have been linked with a swoop for the Poland international following the departure of Robin van Persie.

The Red Devils have Wayne Rooney and James Wilson as strike options, but reports have claimed that manager Louis van Gaal is targeting a big-name arrival.

Lewandowski's representative Cezary Kucharski has claimed that England could be a destination for the 26-year-old in the future, but as of now, Bayern have no interest in selling.

"I think it would have to be a very high offer, definitely higher than £35m for Bayern to consider selling," Kucharski told Polish TV.

"With a player of Robert's class, the truth is that not a lot of work is required because really there are only two directions in which he could go in the future, England or Spain, and only with Bayern Munich's acceptance.

"There must be a signal from the club, from Munich. There is no such signal so we are not thinking about it, because even thinking about a change of club would be unfair in my opinion to the current employers. There is no reason, apart from money to be honest, to even think about it."

Lewandowski made the controversial move to Bayern from Bundesliga rivals Borussia Dortmund in 2014.
