Juventus and German national team midfielder Sami Khedira is observing what’s going on with Bastian Schweinsteiger right now, and he feels that Schweinsteiger “does not deserve” to be treated this way. “A player with a great career does not deserve to be told to just leave”. He added that Schweinsteiger’s current difficulties at United are a warning for him. The overall situation is a shame, because Bastian is player I’ve looked up to.

The World Cup victor was banished to train with the u-23 side while a move away from the club failed to materialise in the transfer window after the Portuguese coach said it would be “very difficult” for him to play for the club again. Later, he was a great captain. Football is business. I am not a daydreamer.

“You have to accept it if Jose Mourinho has other plans”, Khedira told German newspaper Die Welt.

“I know from Bastian that both had a good exchange”. I’m saying it’s very hard. The Portugese has said he sees at least five players ahead of Schweinsteiger at his favored position. “It’s very hard that an opportunity will arrive”, the United manager explained, according to the BBC.

‘The market is a bit overheated, but if a club has the money it can spend it.

“I can not answer for him”.

‘His performances will pay it back. “He’s a player who can be a difference-maker”.
