Lothar Matthaus says that Bastian Schweinsteiger should leave Bayern Munich to join Manchester United.

Bayern Munich legend Lothar Matthaus has said that he believes Bastian Schweinsteiger should leave the club to join Manchester United.

The 30-year-old midfielder made 28 appearances for the Bundesliga outfit last season, with injuries interrupting his campaign.

Matthaus says that the Germany international has slipped down the pecking order under Bayern boss Pep Guardiola, and he thinks that Schweinsteiger should move to Old Trafford if United's rumoured interest is true.

"I can understand that Schweinsteiger is wondering about his future," Matthaus told Sport Bild. "Bastian announced that he wants to play football on the highest level until 2018. But in the way he was used at Bayern recently, I think this is impossible.

"There is no doubt he is intelligent enough and has the right overview to further take over the role as a conductor in the holding midfield.

"If the rumours are true that Louis van Gaal wants to bring him to Manchester United, Schweinsteiger should think about that carefully. If Van Gaal wants him, he will let him play where his strengths are."

Schweinsteiger has made 500 appearances for Bayern since making his debut in 2002.
