"All the talk of the town right now is Bayern Munich's Jonas Urbig. An interesting winter signing from FC Köln last year was quietly become one of Bayern's most important signings in recent years. With Neuer sidelined for the next few weeks, the young German goalkeeper has a massive opportunity to present himself as Bayern's future #1, and possibly propel himself into a World Cup roster under Julian Nagelsmann."
"Leonard Prescott, a 16 year old goalkeeper in Bayern Munich's academy is making serious waves. Prescott is currently starting with Germany's U-17 team and has impressed the club so far with his performances. Prescott is primarily playing with Bayern's U-19 team, but if Manuel Neuer were to retire and hand off the reins to Urbig, it is not hard to imagine a world where Prescott is backing up Urbig in the upcoming years."
Jonas Urbig, a winter signing from FC Köln, has rapidly become a key goalkeeper for Bayern Munich and now has a chance to establish himself as the club's future No.1 with Manuel Neuer sidelined for several weeks. Urbig could also push for World Cup inclusion under Julian Nagelsmann. Sixteen-year-old Leonard Prescott is impressing within Bayern's academy, starting for Germany's U-17s and featuring mainly for Bayern's U-19s. If Neuer retires and hands control to Urbig, Prescott could serve as his long-term backup. With Manuel Neuer and Alexander Nübel's futures uncertain, Bayern has significant goalkeeping options.
