Bayern Munich goalkeeper Manuel Neuer, who recently retired from the German national team, is considering continuing with football beyond 2025 , when his contract with the Bavarian club ends. He revealed this in an interview with "Kicker" magazine.
Despite feeling fit and fit to play at the 2026 World Cup, Neuer announced on Wednesday that he is giving up playing any more for the Bundesliga at the age of 38, wanting to concentrate on Bayern.< /p>
"If we can make it through the season in the new team, that means it will be a great pleasure for me. And if the pleasure is still there, I will continue without hesitation", explained the goalkeeper.
"I'm not starting this season with the attitude and the idea that I'm going to say "goodbye" after its end. I am constantly talking to the coach (b.a. - Vincent Kompany), with Christoph Freund and Max Eberl (b.a. - the sports directors). I feel like everyone is happy with me. The point at this point is that the topics are my future is still far away. But the time will come," Neuer added.
Goalkeeper Alexander Nübel has a contract with Bayern until 2029, having been transferred to Stuttgart until 2026. But for Neuer, the continuation of his career is not related to Nübel's case.
Manuel Neuer has set his sights on making another Champions League final with Bayern after winning the tournament in 2013 and 2020. This season's final is on May 31, 2025 at the "Allianz Arena" in Munich.
