Manchester United boss Sir Alex Ferguson does not believe Bayern Munich will sell France international Franck Ribery.
Ribery has been linked with several of Europe’s leading clubs this summer, including United, Barcelona and Real Madrid.
“We didn’t try to buy Ribery, we explored it in a nice, quiet way when David Gill was at one of his meetings with Bayern in March,” said Ferguson.
“They told him, ‘absolutely no chance’ and the one thing you can say about Bayern is that, when they say something, they mean it.
“When we negotiated with them over Hargreaves, at the beginning they said ‘no’, but they also said that, if it ever changed, their minds, we’d be the first to know.
“It was exactly the same this time. There is no way that they will sell Ribery.”
