The Netherlands star reveals
that his coach would
welcome him at Old Trafford
but insists that he is happy at
Bayern Munich and has no
intention of leaving this
summer
Arjen Robben says coach
Louis van Gaal has told him
that "there's always room"
for him at Manchester
United .
The winger, who was one of
the stars of the World Cup as
he helped his country to
third place in the
tournament, insists he is
happy at Bayern Munich,
however, and has no
intention of joining his
departing national boss at
Old Trafford this summer.
Asked by NOS if he could join
United this summer, Robben
replied: "No - that's what I
told Van Gaal. I am happy at
Bayern but he's said there is
always room for me [at
United].
"Van Gaal is the best coach
I've had. We've got a very
special relationship.
"After the match he did ask
me to come to Manchester,
but I will not move. I'm at
the right place at Bayern so
that has nothing to do with
Van Gaal or United."
Robben played a key role for
Netherlands under Van Gaal
as they exceeded
expectations in Brazil, scoring
three goals and making one
assist as he played his way
onto the shortlist for Fifa's
Golden Ball.
Since leaving Chelsea in 2007,
the winger has had success
at both Real Madrid and
Bayern, winning the
Champions League with the
German club in 2013.
