Manchester United made a world-record bid for Bayern Munich's forward Thomas Muller last summer, according to chief executive Karl-Heinz Rummenigge.
Manchester United were repeatedly linked with a move for Muller in the British press, and Rummenigge admits an offer was put in by the club, who were managed by Louis van Gaal at the time.
But speaking to German publication Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung, Rummenigge said the offer was not considered for one second.
"We had a mad offer from Manchester United last year, which was not a topic for one second. We could have secured a world-record transfer fee.
"Thomas Muller came out of (the youth academy). (He is) born near Munich, formed here, the hero of the fans."
