Germany international, Bastian Schweinsteiger has declared that he came to Manchester United to win more silverwares rather than simply reunite with former boss Louis van Gaal.
The 30-year old midfielder moved to Old Trafford this summer after spending 17 years at Bayern Munich in a deal worth £12 million deal.
And having claimed eight Bundesliga titles, seven DFB Pokals and a Champions League crown in Bavaria as well as the 2014 World Cup with Germany, Schweinsteiger insists he has not lost his hunger for trophies.
"I am very happy to be here and to play for Man United," the 30-year-old said at his unveiling during United's pre-season tour of the United States.
"It is a big honour. It's a new step in my life. I want to win titles, it's easy. Manchester United is used to that and I am too, so that's my goal."
Schweinsteiger fielded questions alongside fellow summer signings Schneiderlin and Matteo Darmian, and Van Gaal admits he is very pleased by United's transfer dealings so far.
"I am very happy because they are in my opinion very good players," the Dutchman added. "That is why Manchester United has bought them.
"I am very happy that they are already here before the tour. We can prepare in the tour all the team elements that I have to implement with the new players. Memphis Depay is also here and now we have three new signings so it's much better than last year." Goal
