MLS would welcome Bastian arrival

Bastian Schweinsteiger joined Manchester United in 2015 from Bayern Munich and made last season 38 appearances. Since Jose Mourinho took United over, the German has lost his importance and isn't part of Mourinho's plans.

He's been linked with several clubs such as Fenerbahce and MLS, the MLS comissioner Don Garber talked in an interview about the rumours.

"Of course we follow Bastian's situation. He's an old acquaintance for the United States, for example through the 2014 World Cup, when he played against the US team. He also played against the MLS All-Stars with Bayern in 2014".

He added: "We would welcome Bastian with open arms. He would be a leader for our many young players.

"He's a terrific player. I have admired him and the success his team had. It's no coincidence. He's a winner," he told 'Spox'.
