Mourinho met the media today for his weekly Friday press briefing, and during the session he said that Schweinsteiger could play tomorrow versus Reading and that he “wants to stay” and “will stay.”
“Bastian, he played with us some minutes against West Ham, but he wants to stay, he is staying, he is an option, and because he’s an option he was selected for three, four matches. He’s waiting for his opportunity to play and I think January is a good month for that with so many matches.”
