Schweinsteiger 'motivated' by Bayern success

Bayern Munich midfielder Bastian Schweinsteiger has said that the prospect of winning a fourth Bundesliga title in a row with the Bavarian outfit motivates him.

The 30-year-old has been heavily linked with a move to Manchester United, with reports suggesting that he would be tempted by the prospect of regular first-team football at Old Trafford.

Schweinsteiger, though, has hinted that he is not looking to leave Bayern.

"I would like to win the Champions League again, but also once again play as successfully as in the last few years," the Germany international told Sport1.

"We are three times German champions. And I think no team has managed it four times. That's a motivation.

"I feel good and I'm ready to play for the next three years at the top level. That's my goal."

Schweinsteiger has one year remaining on his current contract at the Allianz Arena.
