Manuel Neuer, the 38-year-old Bayern Munich goalkeeper and 2014 World Cup winner, recently announced his retirement from international football but intends to continue playing at the club level beyond the current season. Bayern CEO Jan-Christian Dreesen indicated that discussions about Neuer's future would take place over the next few months, as his contract expires in the summer of 2024. Neuer expressed that his decision to step down from the national team stemmed from a desire to focus solely on Bayern, despite feeling capable of playing until the 2026 World Cup. He emphasized that his continuation with Bayern would depend on the enjoyment and success of the season under the new coaching staff. Neuer's illustrious career at Bayern has included 11 Bundesliga titles and two Champions League trophies, and he is widely recognized as one of the greatest goalkeepers in football history. With speculation surrounding his successor, Alexander Nuebel, currently on loan, the future at Bayern remains uncertain.
