German International and Bayern defender Hummels revealed he was close on joining Red Devils on 2014 when Luis Vaan Gaal was in charge for the first time.
Hummels guarantees there was likewise enthusiasm from La Liga powerhouses Barcelona, Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid, however the most solid proposition originated from United two years back.
“Yes, ” Hummels told the Daily Mail. “Yes, yes, yes. It was close. Close.
“There were discussions, a few circumstances in the most recent couple of years. They were the offers. I had England or one of the three major Spanish clubs.
He added,” The Spanish interest was loose, loose offers. I don’t like it that way. Nothing got close like the one from England. Van Gaal wanted me but he wasn’t the only one. It is getting difficult for me now to play in England. I’m 28 next month and I’ve signed here for five years.”
