Summary
Deutscher Fußballmeister, Bastian Schweinsteiger joined the UTD Podcast this week to look back on a legendary career that saw him retire with Champions League, World Cup and Bundesliga honours, to name just a few!
Bastian took us through his journey up the Bayern Munich ranks and drew parallels with the Academy in Germany and Manchester United's youth set-up. He also spoke glowingly of United's interim manager, Ralf Rangnick, and midfielder Scott McTominay, whose talent stood out to Schweinsteiger when he was training with the Reserves at Carrington.
Sam and Helen also read out your emails at the end of the episode. If you'd like to write to the only official Manchester United Podcast then e-mail utdpodcast@manutd.co.uk
