Former Bayern Munich star Bastian Schweinsteiger, who completed his transfer from the Bundesliga giants to Old Trafford earlier this week, has set his sights on helping Manchester United challenge for silverware once more after the club won just one trophy – the FA Community Shield – in two seasons.
“That is my goal for my time here. I want to win titles and this is what Manchester United is used to and I am the same,” Schweinsteiger said in Seattle.
“I cannot guarantee titles but I will guarantee that we will do everything to be successful in the season,” he said.
“I want to make a positive impact. I think I can contribute a lot to the team.”
Schweinsteiger said he hoped lessons learned during his Bayern career, when the club suffered fallow spells before reasserting their dominance, could prove useful as he attempts to return United to glory.
“We had two seasons when Borussia Dortmund were the champions twice in a row ... You learn a lot from these defeats and situations. It was a progress,” Schweinsteiger said.
“It is the same at Manchester United. I know the club are looking forward to winning titles again and I am the same.
“They are the biggest club in the world and I am sure this team has the quality to win titles.”
United finished fourth in the Premier League last season in manager Louis van Gaal's first season at the club. They begin their league campaign on August 8 against Tottenham Hotspur.
The club will then return to Europe in the Champions League play-off round, with the first legs on August 18 and 19 and the second legs a week later.
