Manchester United could be without Bastian Schweinsteiger for the rest of the season after midfielder injures knee in training

* Bastian Schweinsteiger could miss the rest of Manchester United's season
* The midfielder sustained medial ligament damage during Germany training
* He has been ruled out of upcoming friendlies against England and Italy


Bastian Schweinsteiger could miss most of Manchester United’s remaining fixtures this season after suffering a similar knee injury to the one that has already forced him out for eight weeks this year.

The 31-year-old Germany captain damaged his medial ligament training with the national side on Wednesday ahead of their friendly with England in Berlin on Saturday.

He was flown to Munich for an MRI scan with national team physician Dr Hans-Wilhelm Muller-Wohlfahrt and the results have shown a small tear.

Schweinsteiger has only just returned to United’s squad after a similar injury sustained in an FA Cup tie at home to Sheffield United in January. ‘It’s the medial ligament again,’ confirmed German coach Joachim Low.

‘I am not able to give an exact time scale as to how long he will be out, but it doesn’t look very positive. It happened at the end of the training session and he’s in Munich being examined.’

A statement from the German federation later said: ‘Bastian Schweinsteiger has suffered a partial tear to a knee ligament. Treatment will be carried out by the medical team at his club in co-ordination with our doctors.’

United’s squad has been ravaged by injuries throughout a troubled campaign. They have eight Premier League games remaining, starting against Everton a week on Sunday, and are fighting for a Champions League place, having been buoyed by last week’s win at Manchester City.

United then face title contenders Tottenham at White Hart Lane before taking on West Ham in an FA Cup sixth-round replay at Upton Park on April 13.

Schweinsteiger is a popular figure at United. He arrived for £6.5million from Bayern Munich last summer and has played 31 games, scoring one goal.

His absence will come as a blow to a squad that is hoping to welcome back Wayne Rooney and Luke Shaw from injury following the international break.

Midfielder Morgan Schneiderlin said: ‘We must make sure we win against Everton. We have some time to recover with the international break but if we want to do something in the league we need to confirm it with another win.’
