Manchester United flop Bastian Schweinsteiger swaps shirts with Chicago Bulls stars Paul Zipser and Nikola Mirotic on night at NBA game

Bastian Schweinsteiger is already making friends after moving to Chicago. The Manchester United flop took in a Chicago Bulls game last week and afterwards swapped shirts with stars Paul Zipser and Nikola Mirotic.

Schweinsteiger, and wife Ana Ivanovic, sat courtside as the Bulls knocked off Eastern Conference big guns Cleveland Cavaliers. Afterwards they met Mirotic, who top-scored with 28 points in the 99-93 win, and German rookie Zipser.

Like Schweinsteiger, Zipser is a former Bayern Munich star. The small forward was drafted by the Bulls after rising to prominence at the Bavarian giants' basketball outfit.
