Manchester United's Bastian Schweinsteiger says his injury woes are behind him


New Manchester United signing Bastian Schweinsteiger has insisted there should be no concerns over his fitness, despite injuries limiting his appearances for Bayern Munich last season.

The Germany captain completed his move to Old Trafford from Bayern Munich on Monday for a fee of around £14.5million along with Morgan Schneiderlin, who joined the side from Southampton.

Schweinsteiger, 30, suffered with injuries after helping his country to World Cup glory in Brazil last summer and was restricted to just 15 Bundesliga starts last term.

However, he has insisted that he is "feeling great" and said his injury worries are behind him.

"Of course, I had a tough World Cup so after that I was injured until I think end of October," Schweinsteiger told MUTV ahead of flying out to the United States with his new team-mates for the pre-season tour.

"But then I had great weeks and months with Bayern, I was not injured and I am feeling great now at the moment.

"Everything is fine and I'm looking forward to giving my best for Manchester United and I'm really happy to be here."
