Jurgen Klopp's Unique Way Of Playing Down Hummels To United Rumours

With numerous sources such as the Daily Mail claiming that World Cup winning German defender Mats Hummels is on the verge of joining Manchester United, everyone’s favourite German Jurgen Klopp has poured cold water over the rumour with a typically brilliant quote:

So there you have it. Hummels is believed to be one of Louis Van Gaal’s top targets this summer so it will be interesting to see if Klopp backs up his extravagant bet (we are aware that it would be physically impossible for him to do so).
