Bayern Munich are prepared to re-sign Bastian Schweinsteiger from Manchester United.

BILD says Bayern chairman Karl-Heinz Rummenigge has been 'rolling out the red carpet' for the midfielder's return following reports he could leave United.

"Should he speak in the future at some point about a desire to return then we will discuss it with him," Rummenigge said.

Skipper Philipp Lahm said: "It is important to involve deserving players.

"A man like him was predestined to work with the club, he knows everything and everyone."
