Schweinsteiger concern for United

Bastian Schweinsteiger has seen his career at Manchester United suffer another setback after he picked up a knee injury in training for Germany on Tuesday.

The off-season signing from Bayern Munich has missed almost 10 weeks of action with a knee ligament injury he sustained during training at United earlier this year.

Schweinsteiger made his comeback earlier this month, but has yet to start a game for Louis van Gaal's side - and his latest problem will give the Dutchman cause for concern.

The German Football Association (DFB) announced that the Bayern youth product left the national team's training camp in Berlin, where they are preparing for Saturday's friendly with England, and has travelled to Munich for scans.

"World Cup winner Schweinsteiger sustained the injury to his right knee on Tuesday afternoon toward the end of the training session," a statement from the DFB read.

"For further examinations the captain will undergo a MRI scan in Munich with national team doctor Hans-Wilhelm Muller-Wohlfahrt."
