It has been reported that Premier League club, Manchester United, are interested in signing Huntelaar during the summer transfer window. The http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Netherlands-c753 international was reportedly linked with a move away from the Veltins-Arena

While talking to sports website, Bild.com, the 28-year-old further added: "If Schalke is willing to negotiate a deal, we will sit down and discuss this. I am ready to listen to what Schalke would be prepared to offer. It would
be an option for me to retire from the game as a Schalke player."
On the other hand, Huntelaar expressed his desire to win the Bundesliga with Schalke. He insisted that it is an honour for him to be approached by a big club such as United but claimed that he is happy at his current club.
"We have a young squad and first team. [But] to win the German Bundesliga with Schalke would be like a dream coming true. Anyway, if there is another good club looking to offer me something, I would consider this also,"
Huntelaar concluded.
Huntelaar has been in prolific goal scoring form this season and is in contention for the Golden Boot award alongside Bayern Munich’s Mario Gomez. The Dutchman has 18 league goals from 22 league appearances.
