Manchester United midfielder Bastian Schweinsteiger will play one last game for Germany at the end of August, despite confirming his international retirement.

Manchester United midfielder Bastian Schweinsteiger has been granted a farewell match at the end of August by the German Football Association (DFB).

The 32-year-old World Cup winner told Germany head coach Joachim Low at the start of the month that he has retired from international football after 12 years and 120 appearances.

However, it has been confirmed that Schweinsteiger will play one last game for Die Mannschaft, on August 31 in a friendly against Finland in Monchengladbach.

"It's going to be a special evening for me in Monchengladbach," he told Sky Sports News.

"I have a lot to thank the DFB and the fans in Germany for. I am really looking forward to this opportunity to play for Germany one last time."

The fixture would also have been used to bid farewell to Lukas Podolski, who brought an end to his international career on Monday, but since injury is likely to rule him out of the game, a future fixture is set to be chosen for his testimonial.
