"Bayern has internally discussed the scenario of a Neuer retirement. Should the 39-year-old veteran hang up his gloves, Jonas Urbig would get his chance as #1 next season. As for the #2 role, the club is considering signing an experienced goalkeeper."
"Both Alexander Nübel and Daniel Peretz are for sale in the summer as they wouldn't settle for a backup role. Interestingly, there's no mention of Sven Ulreich. The 37-year-old trusty #2 was largely absent last year following the tragic passing of his son."
Bayern Munich is preparing for Manuel Neuer's potential retirement this summer by planning to elevate Jonas Urbig to the #1 goalkeeper position. The 22-year-old would become the club's primary keeper, with Bayern simultaneously seeking an experienced goalkeeper to serve as backup and mentor. Current backup options Alexander Nübel and Daniel Peretz are available for transfer as both refuse to accept backup roles. Sven Ulreich, the 37-year-old reserve keeper, is unlikely to continue beyond this season due to personal circumstances. Both Neuer and Ulreich's contracts expire at season's end, making their departures probable.
