Bayern Munich have agreed a fee with Manchester United for England international Owen Hargreaves.

According to media reports, the German giants will receive around £17m for the midfielder.

This would be a record fee for a Bundesliga player.

Bayern president Franz Beckenbauer told German TV: "Owen is leaving. That was the player's wish. It's a good match and it's also a good deal financially."

Hargreaves is expected to sign a four-year contract with the Premiership champions.
