Borussia Dortmund defender Mats Hummels has moved to clarify reports suggesting that he has agreed to join Manchester United in the summer.
The Germany international admitted this week that he would one day like to move abroad following a six-year spell with Die Borussen, which was widely regarded as the centre-back opening the door on a switch to Old Trafford.
However, Hummels has now taken to Twitter to deal the Red Devils a blow, claiming that any sort of "promise" he is rumoured to have made to join the Premier League giants is simply untrue.
He said: "To clarify it: this supposed 'promise' is simply fictitious and that's the friendly formation."
It has previously been suggested that Dortmund would be open to selling one of their star performers at the end of the season, should the price be right.
