Bayern Munich midfielder Toni Kroos is considering a move to Manchester United, according to his brother.
Felix Kroos, who plays for Werder Bremen in the Bundesliga, says his older sibling now has to decide whether to leave the European champions in the direction of the Premier League.

United boss David Moyes watched Kroos score during Bayern’s 2-0 Champions League win at Arsenal last month.
The 24-year-old has yet to sign a new contract with Bayern, his current deal expiring next summer.
And that has given United hope of landing his signature, as Felix told Sky Germany: ‘We have already talked about it. Manchester has been the team of my dreams since I was a child.
‘However, I don’t give him any advice. He will take a good decision for himself. There are worse situations than having to decide something like that.’
Meanwhile, Bayern honorary president Franz Beckenbauer has stressed that the club will not be held to ransom by Kroos.
‘You have to make a decision as a club when someone's demands are going through the roof,’ he told Sky. ‘There is not a single player who's worth changing your entire wage structure for.
‘Nobody's indispensable. If the player wants to stay at Bayern, I can only advise him not to overplay his hand.
