Bastian Schweinsteiger faces further humiliation at Manchester United

Manchester United have had to write off midfielder Bastian Schweinsteiger as an asset in the club's latest published accounts.

The 32-year-old German was brought to Old Trafford from Bayern Munich last summer by former manager Louis van Gaal, but has been frozen out by new boss Jose Mourinho.

Schweinsteiger is training away from the first team but stressed towards the end of the transfer window that United would be his last club in Europe, saying he 'will be ready, if the team needs me'.

However, that looks even more unlikely after the club announced their financial results for the year ending June 30, 2016.
