Bayern Munich CEO Karl-Heinz Rummenigge has indicated that the club will sell Jerome Boateng if they get the right offer, which is understood to be in the region of €50 million.
Jerome Boateng is looking forward to parting ways with the Bavarian giants after seven seasons, but he has refused to comment on his future, since resuming training earlier this month.
He has been linked with a move to Paris Saint Germain and Manchester United who want to strengthen their defence before the start of the Premier League on Friday is also understood to be in the mix.
However, reports by most of the major German media outlets such as the Bild and the Kicker say Jerome Boateng has called Jose Mourinho to inform him he is not interested in joining Manchester United.
Bild, who first reported Boateng's rejection of United late on Tuesday, said that a conversation with new Bayern head coach Niko Kovac played a role in the defender's decision.
