‘ Last club in Europe’

-

German midfielder Bastian Schweinste­iger said Wednesday that Manchester United would be his “last club in Europe” and vowed to fight for his place in the team.

Schweinste­iger, 32, has been frozen out by new United manager Jose Mourinho and is yet to make a competitiv­e appearance this season.

But with the close of the transfer window just a week away, he told fans in a statement posted on Twitter that he has no desire to leave Old Trafford.

“MUFC will be my last club in Europe,” Schweinste­iger wrote. “I respect other clubs, but Manchester United was the only one which could make me leave Bayern Munich. I will be ready, if the team needs me.”
