Bayern Munich chairman Karl-Heinz Rummenigge says no amount of money would prise Thomas Muller away from the club.

Muller, who has been at the Bavarian club since 2000, was linked in the British press with a move to Manchester United in the summer.

But Rummenigge says the 26-year-old, who has eight goals in eight games this season, is going nowhere, and is indispensible to Bayern just like Lionel Messi is to Barcelona or Wayne Rooney is to Manchester United.

Rummenigge told Bild: "Muller will stay at Bayern, regardless of what any club offers. There is no amount that would make us consider an offer.

"Messi belongs to Barcelona, Rooney belongs to Manchester United and Muller belongs to Bayern. It should stay like that. 

"There might be players out there who have a better technique and who are faster, but there is no second Thomas Muller in this world.
