United Transfer Rumours and Gossip

[Noucamp99]

Manchester United are the new favourites to sign Robert Lewandowski, after Borussia Dortmund insisted they will not sell another star to Bayern Munich.

The Poland striker was expected to follow in the footsteps of Mario Gotze in switching the Westfalenstadion for the Allianz Arena this summer, but Dortmund sporting director Michael Zorc has since insisted "we will not agree a transfer for Bayern FC this summer".

With Wayne Rooney requesting to leave Old Trafford again, the online bookmaker expect United to be next in line to land for the 24-year-old, whose contract expires next summer.

Lewandowski, who scored 24 goals in the Bundesliga and 10 in the Champions League last season, looks unlikely to see out his current deal at Dortmund, having indicated he wants a "new challenge".

Wow! I thought Lewandowski to Bayern was a done deal. Having said that, I was NOT impressed with his showing in the CL final. He didn't seem to have much to offer. Swap deal for Rooney?
