Mourinho should be sent to jail over his treatment of Schweinsteiger – FifPro lawyer

FifPro member and ex-player, Dejan Stefanovic, has said Manchester United manager, Jose Mourinho, should be sent to prison for ‘bullying’ Bastian Schweinsteiger.
Schweinsteiger has reportedly been banned from the first-team changing room at United’s training ground by Mourinho, who is seeking to offload the German midfielder this summer.

“It’s clear bullying,” Stefanovic said. “In Slovenia, we would have indicted Mourinho and asked for the highest penalty – three years in prison.




“This is clearly meant to discourage Bastian. Mourinho is setting a bad example. I would take it to the ordinary court.

“In our case, the penal code is quite clear. If there is bullying and harassment, there’s a prison sanction, a maximum of three years in prison.

“Schweinsteiger should turn to the Professional Footballers’ Association and he should file a complaint and I would also seek penalty for Mourinho.

“All the players of the first team have to train with the coaches of the first team at the same place, at the same time as all other team-mates.


“That’s something that should be applied to each and every club and should be written within FIFA regulations.”

United have declined to comment on Stefanovic’s remarks.
