Bayern Munich and Germany forward Thomas Muller has admitted he will give due consideration to any offers which arrive for his services.

While Muller made 34 appearances in the Bundesliga last season with the Bavarians, he was often left on the bench for crunch clashes and could be tempted by the prospect of a switch to another of Europe’s elite.

And the 22-year-old can count on a number of suitors; he well admits Chelsea tried to by him in the past, while sources in Italy have insisted that Inter would welcome him with open arms.


"As with Chelsea, my management have tried to keep any offers away from me before Euro 2012", Muller told SportBild, insisting that his focus remains on the summer’s showpiece.

"My job is to play in the European Championship now. This is what I am concentrating on without questioning it”, he added.

A transfer though has crossed Muller’s mind, even if he must stress that he, more than anyone, lives and breathes Bayern Munich.

"Generally everyone knows though that I don’t just wear the Bayern badge on my chest, but that Bayern has always been my club. So I don’t really think about moving or going away.

"At the same time, the situation is such though that I can’t say I’m not listening to offers."

Should the Germany international come onto the market, it is not just Chelsea and Inter who would ponder a bid as surely a number of other sides would consider it the coup of the summer to sign the forward.
