Bastian Schweinsteiger is considering taking legal action against a Hong Kong company making Nazi dolls that bear a striking resemblance to him.
The Manchester United midfielder's management company put the matter into the hands of their German-based lawyers earlier this week.
The dolls, named 'World War II Army Supply Duty - Bastian', are made in China by Dragon In Dream.
The company told German paper Bild any resemblance was "purely coincidental".
In a similar case, former United stopper Gary Kenneth is suing the University of Strathclyde Medical Faculty on the grounds that a doll used in anatomical studies infringes his image copyright.
