Manchester United fans have bombarded Jose Mourinho's Instagram page, urging their manager not to sell midfielder Bastian Schweinsteiger.

The 32-year-old German, who has now retired from international football, has been heavily linked with an Old Trafford exit, with Mourinho reportedly looking to offload a number of first-team stars.

With Paul Pogba on the verge of completing a world-record £92 million move from Juventus, reports suggest Mourinho has now deemed Schweinsteiger surplus to requirements, despite the club having only signed him in summer 2015-16.

And a number of United fans clearly aren't happy with the situation, with the former Chelsea boss seeing his latest Instagram post plastered with comments containing the #SaveSchweinsteiger hashtag, begging him not to sell.
