Dortmund’s Mats Hummels denies ‘promise’ to join Manchester United | |
(2 months later) | |
Borussia Dortmund’s Mats Hummels has dismissed reports that he has agreed a deal with Louis van Gaal to join Manchester United. | |
The Germany defender has long been a target for several top European clubs and recently said he would like to play abroad at some point. Hummels’ current deal runs out in 2017. | |
Responding to reports that he had made a promise to the United coach, the central defender tweeted: “Just to be clear. This alleged ‘promise’ is simply an invention … and that is saying it nicely.” | |
Dortmund, German champions in 2011 and 2012, have been struggling this season and are in 10th, chasing a European spot with eight games left. They face Bayern Munich in the Bundesliga on Saturday. | |
Um es klarzustellen: dieses vermeintliche "Versprechen" ist einfach nur frei erfunden...und das ist noch die freundliche Formulierung. |
