Manchester United are reportedly willing to offer Robert Lewandowski close to £11m a year in wages in order to convince the Polish international to make the move to the Premier League.
The 27-year-old has scored 23 times in 25 games for Bayern Munich this season, but it is widely thought that the striker could seek a fresh challenge after spending the last six seasons in the Bundesliga.
Real Madrid have been strongly linked with a move for the Pole, but according to Sportbild, Man United are preparing an eye-watering offer of their own.
Club captain Wayne Rooney's long-term future at Old Trafford remains unclear and it is understood that Man United are prepared to spend big in order to acquire an experienced strike partner for summer signing Anthony Martial.
Paris Saint-Germain are also said to be in the running for the 72-capped Polish international.
