Bayern Munich have revealed that they have no interest in signing Angel Di Maria from Manchester United this summer.
Di
Maria became the most expensive player in the history of British
football when he arrived at Old Trafford from Real Madrid in a £59.7
million deal last year but has so far failed to impress.
Problems
adjusting to life in England and a failure to hold down a regular
first-team place under Louis van Gaal have fuelled speculation linking
Di Maria with a move elsewhere, though it is understood United would
want to recoup most of their initial outlay in order to consider selling
the Argentine.
However
Bayern Munich Coach Pep Guardiola insists that Bayern - who this week
unveiled the signing of Brazilian playmaker Douglas Costa - are not
looking to add Di Maria to an already formidably talented squad at the
Allianz Arena.
"I don't have to watch Argentina games, because I know him and his style of playing very well," Guardiola told reporters when asked about Di Maria. "United did not pay so much money for nothing, he is a great player. Although such transfer fees are sometimes really crazy."
When asked if he was interested in signing Di Maria, the Spaniard replied: "No."
