Borussia Dortmund launch "#freeshinji" campaign to re-sign Man Utd star Kagawa

Borussia Dortmund fans have launched a Twitter campaign to bring Shinji Kagawa back from Manchester United. BVB chiefs have made it no secret they'd happily re-sign the Japan international, who has been left out of United's opening two games of the new season by manager David Moyes.

Using the hashtag, "#freeshinji", Dortmund fans are hoping to draw attention to their cause this week.

It certainly worked yesterday, with not only "#freeshinji", but also "#kagawa" trending worldwide on Twitter.
