Kroos dismisses talk of Man United transfer

The Germany international, who is currently training with the national team ahead of next month's FIFA World Cup, has been heavily linked with a move to Premier League side Manchester United.

However, reports in England have suggested that United have now ended their pursuit of the 24-year-old.

"I would be very surprised (if Bayern let him leave before end of his contract in 2015)," he told Bild.

"The club was very clear and told me that a transfer in 2014 would not be possible.

"There has been much speculation, but Manchester United was never an issue and is no issue right now.

"Now I want to concentrate fully on the World Cup."
