There has been a flat out refusal on Bayern Munich's part to discuss Robert Lewandowski's future, according to German media reports.
With a contract until 2021, the striker may be powerless to leave for Real Madrid if his current club see no reason to contemplate an offer.
Kicker detail how Bayern have made the decision that there will be no negotiation of any kind regarding Lewandowski's potential exit, amid speculation that Los Blancos had already sealed a pre-agreement with the player and his new agent, Pini Zahavi.
What's more, these fresh reports indicate that Munich have no record of Madrid's interest in the Pole, but are aware of Manchester United's desire to sign him.
Whether this apparent refusal to negotiate will persist if a bid of over 100 million euros arrives for Lewandowski remains to be seen, and is itself questioned by German publication Kicker.
