Bayern Munich sporting director Matthias Sammer has revealed that the recoveries of Mario Gotze and Bastian Schweinsteiger are going well.

Sammer said that both players should soon resume full training ahead of the start of the new campaign, in which Bayern will be looking to retain their league title.

"Mario's recovery is going according to plan," Bundesliga.com quotes Sammer as saying. "We're very happy. "[Schweinsteiger is also on a] very good path and should return to team training next week."

Gotze joined Bayern in the summer from rivals Borussia Dortmund.
