Schweinsteiger: I won't leave Man United for another European club

The German midfielder wants to fight for his place at Old Trafford.

BASTIAN SCHWEINSTEIGER HAS this afternoon posted a statement on his social media channels addressing speculation over his club future.

The German midfielder has found himself in exile at Manchester United since the arrival of Jose Mourinho and has yet to make an appearance this season.

Schweinsteiger has been heavily linked with a move away from Old Trafford but he has moved to clarify his current position by reassuring fans he is not joining any other club in Europe.

The 32-year-old has been reportedly forced to train with the club’s reserves and told he does not have a future at United despite being just one year into a three-year contract.

Schweinsteiger started 13 times under Louis van Gaal last season but his year was plagued with injuries.

Since returning to pre-season training in July, the World Cup winner has remained professional in difficult — and, quite frankly, disrespectful — and he has now insisted he is ready to play whenever called upon.
