Bayern Munich contract extension not entirely ruled out for Manuel Neuer

Manuel Neuer has loved a powerful begin to the season in Bayern Munich’s 9 straight wins throughout all competitions to start out off the 2025/26 marketing campaign. Within the technique of getting off to a flying begin, the veteran keeper has been in a position to document three clear sheets and there was hardly something the Bayern captain might’ve have carried out for a majority of the eight objectives which were conceded whereas he’s been in objective.

Whereas he has had his struggles with varied damage issues in current seasons, Neuer has been wanting match and wholesome whereas acting at a excessive degree near what his peak was in his youthful years. At 39 years of age, the time when he’s going to need to name it quits altogether is looming giant someplace across the nook, however he’s proving that he would possibly nonetheless have an honest chunk of time left earlier than that day comes.

Per info from Sport Bild’s Christian Falk and Tobi Altschäffl (by way of @iMiaSanMia), Bayern Munich will not be fully closed off to the concept of providing Neuer one other contract extension for one more season, as long as the keeper stays totally match, wholesome, and retains performing the way in which he’s been performing to this point this season. Per the membership’s regular coverage, they’d solely provide him a one-year extension on account of being over the age of 30, although there have been a number of exceptions to that rule. Nonetheless, each Neuer and Sven Ulreich have had their contracts prolonged by a 12 months a number of occasions in current seasons.

Along with the opportunity of a Bayern extension being on the desk, Neuer can be not fully closed off to creating a return to the German nationwide group for subsequent summer season’s FIFA World Cup in the USA, Canda, and Mexico if he’s wanted by Julian Nagelsmann and firm. He had beforehand thrown chilly water on the rumors that he was doubtlessly popping out of retirement for Die Mannshcaft, however it is rather a lot a subject that he not too long ago mentioned with Rudi Völler. Accidents can actually occur to different keepers within the nationwide group, and there’s plenty of soccer to be performed earlier than subsequent summer season’s match, so nothing is dominated out 100% at this level.
