Neuer set for new deal: Bayern put price tag on Nübel | OneFootball

Manuel Neuer is expected to stay with FC Bayern beyond 2026 – a scenario that would have direct implications for Alexander Nübel. The record champion has apparently already made a decision internally. For the currently loaned goalkeeper, there is only one option left.

Nothing is signed yet, but much indicates that Manuel Neuer will extend his contract with FC Bayern until 2027. For Alexander Nübel, this signal would mean the end of all hopes of establishing himself in Munich in the long term.

According to BILD information, the club sees no future for Nübel on the Isar with a new Neuer contract. The consequence: the goalkeeper is to be sold. Internally, Bayern has set a transfer fee of 20 to 25 million euros – too much for VfB Stuttgart, but a realistic range for clubs from the mid-table of the Premier League.

Just a few days ago, the Süddeutsche Zeitung reported that the club management is very open to a new contract with the 39-year-old. If Neuer himself seeks to stay in Munich, "no one in the club would stand in his way," it is said. On the contrary: the club bosses are ready to "hand him the pen."

Since retiring from the national team, the 2014 World Cup winner appears physically fresher, and according to the club's environment, his susceptibility to injuries has significantly decreased. In the current season, Neuer is consistently in top form – a reason why potential successors currently play no real role.

This also affects Jonas Urbig. The 22-year-old is considered a future solution for the Bayern goal, but according to the current status, he would have to wait until 2027. The plan remains: loan out, gain match practice – and be ready in the long term for the spot between the posts at the Allianz Arena.

For Alexander Nübel, however, there will likely be no further attempt. His chapter at FC Bayern seems to be nearing its end.
