Jose banishing Schweinsteiger to U16s training was 'illegal' - Neville

The 39-year-old spent two seasons at Old Trafford after signing from Bayern Munich on a three-year deal for a cut-price £6.8million.

The playmaker was a part of manager Louis van Gaal's plans but after he was sacked and replaced by Jose Mourinho, Schweinsteiger was banished from first-team training upon his return from the European Championship in August 2016 as Mourinho settled on a core squad ahead of the new season.

United were on the verge of signing Paul Pogba for a world record £89million, Mourinho instructed the club to offer Michael Carrick a new contract, assured Marouane Fellaini he would not be sold and also had Ander Herrera and Morgan Schneiderlin in midfield.

After sustaining a knee injury in the narrow FA Cup third-round win against Sheffield United on January 9, Schweinsteiger only made four substitute appearances in the 201516 season yet travelled to Dubai, Miami and Stuttgart to watch his partner, tennis player Ana Ivanovic.

The German's jet-setting annoyed senior members of the United dressing room, which Mourinho got wind of as he prepared to replace Van Gaal.

Schweinsteiger was banished from United's first-team dressing room and spent the summer of 2016 training with the club's youth sides before he was sold to Major League Soccer outfit Chicago Fire in March 2017.

Schweinsteiger returned to United team training in late October and Mourinho publicly admitted he regretted his treatment of the World Cup winner.
