Toni Kroos has agreed to join Manchester United since Bayern Munich in 2013, but the transfer has collapsed, revealed David Moyes.
Moyes, who spent ten miserable months at Old Trafford before being sacked in April 2014, identified Kroos as one of his key transfer targets after replacing Sir Alex Ferguson.
Marouane Fellaini, with whom Moyes worked at Everton, was the only signing he managed to make in his first and only summer transfer window.

Reflecting on the missed opportunity and the fact that the Red Devils were close to signing the World Cup winner, Kroos, Moyes told talkSPORT: "Toni Kroos agreed to come to Manchester United with me.
"I met him with his wife and we agreed on everything when he was at Bayern Munich."
Instead, Kroos, 28, joined Real Madrid in July 2014 and has since established himself as one of the world's best midfielders.
The German has won the Champions League three times in the last four years and has also played a crucial role in the La Liga win in Real in 2017.
Moyes, who had recently been in charge of West Ham before his departure in May, said he deserved more time at Old Trafford, highlighting United's ongoing struggles since his departure.
He added: "Go to a club like Manchester United and follow someone like Sir Alex after his stay there, stay ten months
"It could not be a revolution at Manchester United, it had to be an evolution, it would take time.
"I still think that they are going through difficult times right now."
