Bastian Schweinsteiger insists he has no "personal problems" with Jose Mourinho and reiterated his desire to force his way into Manchester United's first-team plans.

The German midfielder joined from Bayern Munich in July 2015, but has fallen out of favour under new manager Mourinho and has been training with the reserves.

Mourinho's treatment of Schweinsteiger has drawn criticism in some quarters, particularly Bayern's executive chairman Karl-Heinz Rummenigge.

However, the 32-year-old is adamant that there is no rift with the Portuguese and he remains determined to play a part at Old Trafford this season.

Speaking ahead of Germany's friendly with Finland, which marks Schweinsteiger's international farewell, he said: "My absolute dream would be to play for Manchester United and to help them with their goals.

"I have no personal problems with Jose Mourinho. I still believe in my own ability. I could still help United if given the chance.

"I have to wait and see now how it goes in September and October and how it develops. One thing is for sure, I'm not going to stop playing football."
