Bayern Munich coach Kovac remains coy on Man Utd target Boateng

Bayern Munich manager Niko Kovac has said there is no news about Jerome Boateng.

The German defender has been linked with a move to Manchester United in recent days. And on Sunday, Boateng lined up against the Red Devils in a friendly in Munich, which the hosts won 1-0.

Asked about Boateng after the match, Kovac told reporters: "Regarding Jerome, there's nothing new.

"Jerome has played a really good match today when he came in.

"I am happy about him being with us again. Not only him but also the others."

Bayern CEO Karl Heinz-Rumenigge confirmed last month that PSG were in talks over the centre-back.
