Pep: Basti can decide own future
Print Edition
BAYERN Munich midfielder Bastian Schweinsteiger will be given the choice of whether to stay or leave the Bundesliga champion, manager Pep Guardiola said yesterday.
The 30-year-old German World Cup winner has been linked in media reports with a move to Manchester United where he would be reunited with manager Louis van Gaal who converted him from a wide player into a central midfielder during his time at Bayern.
“If Schweinsteiger wants to stay here then that’s perfect. He’s a top player,” Guardiola told a news conference yesterday.
“Of course I am planning to work with Basti next season. Basti has to decide.
“Basti has managed a great career. He must decide what he does alone. I told him, the future depends on you.”
Schweinsteiger came through the youth ranks at Bayern and has spent 13 seasons with the Bavarians, winning the Bundesliga title eight times.
Elsewhere, in the Bundesliga, Germany midfielder Ilkay Gundogan has extended his contract at Borussia Dortmund, ending speculation he will leave the club this summer.
With his contract due to expire in 2016, Gundogan was expected to move on for a transfer fee before the season begins. Dortmund says now, however, that the 24-year-old extended his stay by another year through June 2017.
