The World Cup winner was linked with a switch to Old Trafford just after new boss Louis Van Gaal had taken over, as the Dutchman looked to bolster his squad with a number of world class signings.
But despite the heavy interest and the numbers being quoted in terms of what he would be earning in the north of England, the goalscoring forward decided to stay at the Alianz ArenA, claiming it was the easiest decision he had to make.
“I know there was interest, but Man United were interested in a lot of players this summer,” he said.
“It never really got anywhere because I had just renewed my contract [until 2019], and Bayern were clear that they saw my future here.
“The decision for me was an easy one.”
