Sommer is a free agent in the summer as his contract with Monchengladbach is due to expire and Man United were hoping to seize the opportunity.
The Red Devils were attached to the 34-year-old over the summer, but once that fell through, they planned to start working on a deal to catch Sommer for free in the summer of 2023, ESPN reports.
United may start talks with Sommer on a deal in January, but Bayern Munich could now ruin his plans by trying to sign the Swiss international.
