Shinji Kagawa decides time to leave Man Utd

Shinji Kagawa is ready to leave Manchester United. The People says the Japanese midfielder has struggled for games since David Moyes took over and has now told team-mates that he needs to leave Old Trafford in the transfer window.

Kagawa, 24, fears he will continue to be frozen out of the United side in the build-up to the World Cup, and does not want to risk a lack of fitness and form as he heads to Brazil.

He arrived in June 2012 in a deal worth around £17million from Borussia Dortmund.

The German club enquired about re-signing him in the summer, and Bundesliga side Wolfsburg have declared that they will be in the hunt to snap him up too if he becomes available.
