"I can easily imagine playing another year. The role I have in the goalkeeping team suits me, and I'm enjoying it. But it's not solely my decision. Others [the people in charge] have a bit more influence."
"The 37-year-old goalkeeper has been a fine player for Bayern over his two spells. He has done brilliantly to be a deputy to Neuer. He is a leader in the dressing room."
"Bayern could raise funds from the goalkeeping department. Die Roten will not have to sign a new goalkeeper in the summer if Neuer decides to play for one more season."
Bayern Munich is awaiting Manuel Neuer's decision regarding his future as he approaches 40. Jonas Urbig is expected to be the long-term replacement for Neuer, having performed well recently. Sven Ulreich, currently the third-choice goalkeeper, is optimistic about extending his contract for another season. His experience is valuable, especially if Neuer retires. Bayern may not need to sign a new goalkeeper if Neuer continues, as Urbig and Ulreich provide a solid backup for the upcoming season. The club could also generate funds by selling other goalkeepers.
