Bayern Munich definitely doesn’t need to look for a new goalkeeper this winter. Manuel Neuer is still world class despite his injuries. To write him off now would be hasty and disrespectful to a player who has won so many titles for the club. He is a figurehead for the club, the opponents have respect for him, which not only helps him, but the entire team.
On the contrary: If Neuer actually wants to extend his contract again, manager Max Eberl must take action immediately. Because Neuer can still have a top season.
In terms of sport, things are going relatively well. Bayern are leaders, play outstanding football and have conceded seven goals in the Bundesliga this season with Neuer, only Leipzig and Union Berlin have conceded fewer.
Especially since the club has already gambled away with winter goalkeeper changes. Yann Sommer came to Munich in January 2023, was unable to impress and left again after six months.
By the way: Bayern is also currently well positioned behind Neuer. Sven Ulreich is suspended, but he has repeatedly proven himself to be a solid backup in recent years. Daniel Peretz has hardly played so far, which is completely normal for a third goalkeeper. Especially because he was injured for a long time. Nevertheless, at 24 years old, he is a talented goalkeeper.
